Project Description

From DICOM data to a 3D print of anatomical models for training: anatomy classes and/or surgical planning

Objective Approach and Plan Progress and Next Steps
  • Develop and document a workflow to process the acquired DICOM images
  • Improve the segmentation mechanics in order to extract the data to print
  • Prepare the STL files for printing: checking the mesh and creating the support structures
  • Before Project Week:
    • Know the "state of the art" of 3d printer options and materials
    • Diving into the DICOM and NRRD file structure
  • During Project Week:
    • Establish the guidelines for the segmentation procedures
    • Identify the STL export issues

Background and References

Possible application areas / IDEAS

  • Life size models of different anatomical structures: normal and pathological
  • Create life like models, that provide a sensorial feeling as close as the "organic" have
