Période

This replica never used; actual model created and used 2004 (possible also used later)

Canada

Canadian soldiers wounded in Afghanistan have been treated at American Hospitals with these new technologies. Other forms of 3-D imaging are starting to be used in Canada as well. [2007] [Ref. 1]

Fonction

Used by medical personal to familiarize themselves with specific patient's injury, and produce appropriate treatment response (including prosthetics, etc.]

Technique

This is a "sample" 3-D model from the Walter Reed 3-D Imaging Center in Washington DC. The models are usually full size. It is based on imaging data. This is the skull of a soldier who sustained a serious head wound due to an improvised explosive device (IED) circa 2004. Although he survived, he has sustained serious brain damage. (see Ref. 2]. This model may have been used by surgeons to help make a plate to cover the wound. 3-D models represent the latest direction in medical imaging technology. They are generated from the data used to make 2-D medical images. The 3-D models also represent a shift back to tactile, 3-D model use in surgery and medical training. [Ref. 1] Model produced using SLA 7000 stereolithography system from 3D Systems, Valencia, CA, USA. [Ref.3]
