3D measuring systems for medical applications are presented. All systems were developed on Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Ljubljana.
F.09 Development of a new technological process or technology
COBISS.SI-ID: 12284955Aesthetically pleasing and symmetrical breasts are the goal of reconstructive breast surgery. Sometimes, however, multiple procedures are needed to improve a reconstructed breastʼs symmetry and appearance. In order to avoid additionalcorrective procedures, we have developed a new method that uses a reverse engineering technique to produce what we call a new breast replica cast (NBRC). The NBRC is a mould of the contralateral healthy breast, designedaccording to preoperative laser 3D images. During surgery, the mould is used to help shape the new breast. With this method, we are able to achievebreast symmetry in terms of volume, projection, contour, and position on the chest wall more accurately, more quickly, and more safely than before.
