Measurement

Turn on measurement, then click two points on the bone, the implant or a screw. Distances are in millimetres, on the manufacturing meshes.

Implant section in blue, bone section in ochre. Models simplified for the web: measurements are indicative; the reference dimensions are those of the design file.

Reading the case

What the model shows

A large implant covering the fronto-temporo-parietal region. The fixation holes are spread around the perimeter of the implant, over the bone edge, and the identification engraving is on the outer surface.

What to look at in the viewer

  1. 01Section plane through the implant: continuity of curvature with the vault.
  2. 02Measurement: width of the overlap between the implant edge and the bone edge.
  3. 03Top view: blending with the midline.
