摘要: Medical rapid prototyping (MRP) is defined as the manufacture of dimensionally accurate physical models human anatomy derived from medical image data using a variety (RP) technologies. It has been applied to range specialties, including oral and maxillofacial surgery [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7], dental implantology, neurosurgery [8, 9], orthopedics [10, 11]. The source for 3-dimensional (3D) modeling principally computed tomography (CT), although magnetic resonance imaging ultrasound have also used. successfully built hard tissue (bone) soft tissues (blood vessels nasal passages). MRP was described originally by Mankowich et al. in 1990 [12].
