SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ORTHOPEDIC IMPLANTS

Abstract: a system and computer-implemented method for manufacturing an orthopedic implant involves segmenting features in an image of anatomy. anatomic elements can be isolated. spatial relationships between the isolated anatomic elements can be manipulated. negative space between anatomic elements is mapped before and/or after manipulating the spatial relationships. at least a portion of the negative space can be filled with a virtual implant. the virtual implant can be used to design and manufacture a physical implant.
