A stereolithic skull reconstructed from a three-dimensional computed tomography scan can aid in the planning of such osteotomies by permitting preoperative selection and bending of plates, thus reducing expenditures on distraction hardware and operating room time .

Plain film radiographs (frontal and lateral cephalogram, panoramic, and a submentovertex) are often still obtained, but 3D-CT reconstructions and stereolithic skulls (Fig. 8A, B) illustrating the finer elements of the patient's hard and soft tissue defects are …

A stereolithic skull reconstructed from a 3-D CT scan can aid planning of such osteotomies by permitting preoperative selection and bending of plates, thus reducing expenditures on distraction hardware and operating room time (Figs. 6 and 7).

A stereolithic skull reconstructed from a three-dimensional CT scan can aid planning of such osteotomies by permitting preoperative selection and bending of plates, which reduce expenditures on distraction hardware and operating room time.

2019年8月31日 · A major advancement to patient-specific implants was the rapid prototyping of stereolithic models to scale, first described in oral and maxillofacial surgery by Brix and Lambrecht 17,18 in 1987. The printed models can be used to manually bend reconstruction plates fitted for a particular defect before the day of surgery, a concept commonly ...

Prior to surgery, the guides and distractors are tested and modified using a patient-specific stereolithic skull model . This allows for customization of the internal distractors, saving time during the surgical procedure.

1994年1月1日 · CT-guided stereolithography provides an acrylic model which exactly replicates the original structure. It allows optimal preoperative planning and intraoperative management. This application proved advantageous in surgical correction of a …

Stereolithic models of human mandibles were produced with varying amounts of asymmetry in the condylar neck, ramus and body of the mandible by means of rapid prototyping. A method for produc-tion of the synthetic mandibles was defined. Model preparation, landmark description and development of the experimen-tal model were described.

Three-dimensional (3D) stereolithic skull models with venous reconstruction and 3D models for brain interfacing were developed using preoperative computed tomography, MRI, and digital subtraction...

A three-dimensional stereolithic model was manufactured to help the clinicians visualize the lesion and its defect. Surgery was planned to use the combination of a handheld three-dimensional skull model and the virtual images of the tumor defect on the monitor of the computer workstation.
