Atlas of Virtual Surgical Planning and 3D Printing for Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery

The Atlas of Virtual Surgical Planning and 3D Printing for Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery is a comprehensive reference dedicated to the integration of virtual planning and additive manufacturing in cranio-maxillo-facial procedures. It presents detailed clinical examples organized by anatomical region, each case walking through radiological acquisition protocols, computational design methods, and surgical planning strategies that lead to 3D printing applications and documented surgical outcomes.

Coverage extends to point-of-care 3D printing, the engineering principles behind it, and the role of artificial intelligence in surgical planning, along with the regulatory considerations that govern point-of-care laboratories in hospital settings. The content is aimed at students, postdoctoral fellows, cranio-maxillo-facial surgeons, neurosurgeons, ENT and plastic surgeons, bioengineers, clinical engineers, and industry representatives involved in the design and manufacture of medical devices.

This first edition is published in English as a 144.1 MB publisher PDF and carries the ISBN 9783031944956.
