Everybody is unique and every body is unique. When a patient experiences joint problems, he or she looks for a treatment that’s as unique as they are.
You may have already heard about patient-specific implants which are engineered to match a specific patient’s anatomy. But more and more, the market is looking towards patient-specific instrumentation to revolutionize the industry. Customized surgical guides are the best example today for taking surgeries to the next level!
 
These guides are made to fit perfectly on one patient’s anatomy. They allow surgeons to cut the problematic joint more precisely and to position the implants far more accurately. And best of all… surgeries performed with customized surgical guides are often faster and less invasive for the patient.
We are very happy to announce that our latest webinar, titled “Surgical guide design using the Mimics Innovation Suite” will specifically deal with this topic. During the webinar, Prof. Randy E. Ellis Professor at Queen's University (Kingston) and Queen's Research Chair in Computer-Assisted Surgery, will give a presentation called “Five Year Experience with Individualized Templates for Orthopedic Surgery” in which he will cover the importance of planning. Applications will include  amongst others: femoral head resurfacing and distal radius osteotomy. Following his presentation, one of Materialise’s engineers will show how the Mimics Innovation Suite is a complete solution for creating surgical guides and thus improving your planning.

Join us for this exciting webinar and see how these tools have revolutionized the industry!
