    摘要: An anatomical implant application, such as a bone implant application for instance, can receive an anatomical image that is representative of an anatomical structure. The anatomical implant application can generate an implant image that is associated with the anatomical structure. The generated implant image can define an inner surface that faces the anatomical image. A plurality of distances can be determined from respective locations of the inner surface of the implant image to the anatomical image in respective straight lines. The distances may represent a superimposition of the implant image over the anatomical image. The distances may be compared to a tolerance. The inner surface may be repositioned so as to change at least the select one of the distances. An implant, such as a bone implant for instance, may be fabricated in accordance with data that is associated with the implant image.

    摘要: A cable-lock device includes a housing, having a length-axis between a distal end for accepting a cable and a proximal end for exiting a cable, including a first bore parallel to the length-axis of the housing and configured to allow passage of the cable, a second bore off-center from and parallel to the first bore including a tappet axially displaceable in the second bore and parallel to the length axis of the housing, and a third bore oblique to the first bore which intersects with the first bore including a locking roller axially displaceable in the third bore with a predetermined angulation to the length-axis of the housing, a resilient structure which exerts a force on the locking roller in the direction of the intersection of the first bore and the third bore, and a fastener unit at the proximal end of the third bore.

    摘要: A bone implant kit includes an implant and first and second electrical stimulation anchors. The implant defines an inner surface inner configured to face a bone to which the bone implant kit is configured to attach, and an outer surface opposite the inner surface. The implant further defines first and second bone fixation holes that each extend from the inner surface to the outer surface. The first and second bone fixation holes are spaced from each other along a longitudinal direction. The first electrical stimulation anchor can be sized and configured for insertion into the first bone fixation hole, and the second electrical stimulation anchor can be sized and configured for insertion into the second bone fixation hole. The first and second electrical stimulation anchors can be configured to respond to a magnetic field so as to generate an electric field between the first and second electrical stimulated anchors.

    摘要: An implant for use in orthognathic surgery of a mandible may include a longitudinal plate member and a plurality of pre-configured guides coupled to the plate member. The longitudinal plate member is pre-bent to correspond to the post-operative shape of the mandible; and the guides are pre-configured to align the plate member with the mandible when the implant is positioned against the mandible after the mandible has been separated.
