This quick turnaround can be achieved as a result of dedicated production facilities as well as a team of doctors, engineers and technicians specialised in internal fixation which work together to design and finalise the custom implant.
In most cases the following would be required:
- Scaled X-ray of the injured bone (2 planes) preferably digitised
- Scaled X-ray of the contralateral side preferably digitised
- A brief overview of the clinical requirements
- CT reconstruction, if available
The scale is essential in order to optimise the implant to match the anatomy.
Intra-operative technical support is provided by highly experienced members of the Lavender Medical team, if required.
