Hello!
I’m looking for a tool or a set of tools to approach osteotomy planning. The Osteotomy Planner module appears to be useless for this.
Thanks a lot.
Slicer has been improved a lot since the Osteotomy Planner module was introduced and probably you can fulfill most needs only using Slicer core modules.
For example, you can place a markup plane using Markups module, and then simulate bone cuts using Dynamic modeler module.
If you describe what you need eactly then we can give further suggestions.
I would like to plan a surgery and create surgical guides for deformity correction. For the first step, Dynamic Modeler’s tools allow me to create all the references I need to determine the CORA or another required reference, but I guess I need to set the lines and planes manually. What about the second step?
Thanks for your answer!
You can validate your workflow using general-purpose manual tools. Then you can gradually automate your workflow by Python scripting. The BoneReconstructionPlanner extension is a nice example that implements mandible fibula flap reconstruction planning workflow and automatic 3D-printable guide generation.
