- Science and Engineering Research Board
- Brief Summary
This study aims at developing algorithms and software tools for designing patient-specific precision surgical aids – specifically, the developments related to design and import of surgical templates, particularly the patient-specific screw-guides for surgeries on spine junctions and thoraco-lumbar deformed spine.
Objectives are
To develop algorithms and user-interface capabilities, for
a. Building a library of surgical templates, using a design tool like CAD
b. A user-interface to customize the template/screw-guide for every patient, by super-posing the library-file on to the CT images of the patient (User Interface should have features like stretch, rotate, measure, etc – like, insert object and resize), and achieve best congruence
