Abstract

Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP) based on CT data has become widely used for orthognathic surgery, distraction osteogenesis, cancer reconstruction, trauma, and custom bone plate fabrication. Software planning utilizing 3D images provides surgeons with unparalleled visual tools for the understanding of patient’s deformities, pathology, and defects for surgical treatment. Surgeons can visualize and plan precise segmented images of cut bone segments and their repositioning, the creation of sectioned bone grafts, placement of dental implants, and develop facial and cranial implants.
