Polygonica is used in a range of medical applications including modelling for orthognathic reconstruction, rapid design of craniomaxillofacial patient specific implants (PSIs) to planning automation for robot-guided surgery.
Powered by Polygonica's fast and robust mesh Booleans, the CAD Import module for advanced segmentation engine Synopsys Simpleware allows users to directly merge CAD models with CT scans without the need to reverse engineer. CADS medical software use Polygonica to streamline different surgical processes as part of their advanced IPS Platform. Polygonica is also used in a wide range of print preparation applications used by implant manufacturers and surgical planning teams, including software from Oqton, 3D Systems, Stratasys and Desktop Health.
Polygonica provides a growing range of functionality for medical workflows including
Synopsis Simpleware is an advance image segmentation engine that allows conversion of medical imaging data into high quality 3D models. It provides powerful tools to create virtual and physical 3D models from 2D scans, supporting clinical decision making and surgical planning.
Simpleware directly links with design, simulation and medical 3D printing workflows.The quality of the image processing and mesh generation tools available with the software enables models to be created in a fraction of the time taken with other programs. Applications include implant positioning for medical device research, evaluating interactions between anatomies and consumer products, and generating internal structures to reduce the weight of manufactured parts.
Simpleware +CAD provides a straightforward method for the import, interactive positioning and integration of CAD models with image data. The resulting meshes can be exported as multi-part CAD models, or using Simpleware’s +FE module, converted into multi-part volume meshes for physics-based CAE/FEA simulation. Many operations within the +CAD module are underpinned by Polygonica's fast and robust mesh operations, allowing direct fusion of CAD models with scan data without the need to reverse engineer.
