Recently, Beijing Polytechnic
University has, in collaboration with
Tiantan Hospital, successfully
performed an operation on skull repairing with digital
techniques. The whole process is made in the following
steps: the skull CT data based 3-D reconstruction, digital
design of the object to be repaired, simulation assembling,
optimizing technique parameters and transmitting the
finalized repairing data to the digital programmed multi
— point shaping equipment to work out the repaired
object. The process eliminates the need for founding and
mould with a remarkably improved efficiency. It only takes
about two hours from CT data collection to get the skull
repaired.
Researchers expressed that the new
process has found the solution to addressing the low
technical level and long operation hour for skull repairing
in the country and reduced both operation risks and
patients' pain. The new development has laid a solid
technical foundation for the future development of fast
skull repairing.
