Patient-specific medical devices and additive manufacturing processes for producing the same

Abstract

Systems and processes for designing and generating personalized surgical implants and devices are described herein. In various embodiments, the process includes generating patient-specific implants with patient-specific surface(s) and/or textures designed for increased osseointegration and improved surgical outcomes. In various embodiments, the process includes extracting patient-specific data with one or more aspects of an anatomical feature, processing the one or more aspects of the anatomical feature to create a non-rigid shape reference, and generating a patient-specific implant or device.
