Manufacture of medical orthopaedic implants using computed tomography imaging and rapid prototyping

The manufacturing method of an orthopaedic implant using computed tomography image of the bone, current enhanced designs and rapid prototyping technology is studied to produce the mould of casting. This method can decrease the complexity of process and production time which as a great impact on medi...
