摘要: An apparatus and modeling method of the present invention includes successive steps generating cartographic data representative points belonging to a glenoid surface; distinguishing from among first group corresponding part surface, surface being situated farthest down in vertical direction relation scapula; calculating ellipsoid portion that coincides substantially with part; obtaining theoretical portion. By virtue obtained by this method, it is possible assist surgeon optimizing position implantation component produce “made measure” for scapula be fitted prosthesis.
