SOLID 3D MODEL REALIZATION OF ANATOMICAL STRUCTURES USING COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (CT SCAN) AND MAGNETIC REZONANCE IMAGING (MRI SCAN) DATA

A spectacular progress in surgery, prosthetics and diagnosis was possible with new imag-istic methods as computed tomography (CT scan), magnetic resonance imagery (MRI scan) and 3D ultrasound. Further development of these methods was the realization of solid 3D models of anatomical structures. So we can find better solution in such domain as: surgical planning and scientific applications (especially in craniofacial and maxillofacial surgeries), biologically Active Implants and Tissue Engineering. The main steps of the program are:- processing of raw data from CT and MRI i.e. reconstruction and segmentation of 2D im-ages,- analysis of available additive manufacturing methods like stereolitography (STL), 3D printing with its recent development polyjet (3D polyjet),- analysis of the available monomers formula for UV curing which is the main constructive process for 3D model realization in rapid prototyping
