Abstract
A modular bone model can include a bone component and an implant component that can be positioned on the bone component. The implant component can be shaped and sized to correspond to a head component of a medical implant to simulate an articulating surface of the head component. Similarly, the bone component can be shaped to simulate a natural bone to which the medical implant can be mounted. Alternatively, the head component of the medical implant can be mounted directly to the bone component to simulate the mounting on the natural bone.
