Abstract

See full text

Non-invasive method of forming prostheses of skeletal structures internal to a body for use in reconstructive surgery. The selected internal skeletal structure is measured by subjecting the body to radiant energy to produce radiant energy responses that are detected to obtain representations delineating the skeletal structure. Three dimensional coordinate data defining the skeletal structure is generated from the obtained representations. The coordinate data is employed to control a sculpting tool to form the prosthesis.
