Simulating surgery to reduce implant complications

"If you are an orthopaedic surgeon or neuro-surgeon, the health organization where you are working can contact the orthoSIM team to buy credits for sponsoring your surgical planning."...and there's a 30 day trial for no charge...used for hip, knee and spinal implant simulations...BD 

A computer simulation breakthrough could mean fewer medical complications and better surgical outcomes for patients undergoing hip, knee or spinal implant surgery.

Each year surgeons across Europe perform a staggering 900,000 hip, knee and spinal implant operations. Implant surgery is one of the most remarkable advances in medical science. Such operations restore increased mobility and a vastly improved quality of life to millions of Europeans. That work continues. A follow-on project, called OrthoTraining, is taking the OrthoSim toolset a step further. Over the next two years OrthoTraining’s researchers plan to develop a surgical training tool based on OrthoSim’s work.
