                 State-of-the-art technology innovative business strategy behind the scenes insights from cutting-edge users around the globe on 21st century business when a car breaks down we can easily look under the hood diagnose the problem and determine the best solution because the human body is less accessible the same can't be done when a patient is experiencing a physical problem by using medical image based software technology a company called materialized addresses this challenge providing a solution for surgeons and biomedical engineers their solutions provide a means of visualizing the invisible and engineering this anatomical data there's a growing trend towards the personalization of medical care based on almost 20 years of experience in additive manufacturing and medical image processing materialized provides software solutions that facilitate optimized patient specific engineering diagnosis and surgery materialized took off in 1990 with the idea that rapid prototyping technologies offers a unique possibility to advance medical devices in fact the first thing we did was linking CT scanners or medical imaging devices to rapid prototyping or 3d printing devices and this application was especially useful in complex surgical interventions but very soon it became apparent that the real challenge for materialized was located in linking medical imaging and the medical device industry materializes biomedical engineering software solution mimics innovation sweet makes it possible to import 2d image data and transform them to 3d data does the inaccessibility of the body can now be easily overcome using modern non-invasive imaging techniques and materializes 3d software solutions personally i've been using materialized software solution for over a decade now about five years ago i started to develop a by modeling course where the students learn how to use the material I software suite we had a project that started a couple years ago with an animal patient a dog named cassidy that was missing in one of his back legs one of the projects and the by modeling course to students then started to design an austere integrated process when we started with mimics after the implantation of the Austin degraded prosthetic we lit the bone going to the implant for about two to three months then a couple of weeks ago we attached the final prosthetic leg that is actually a carbon fiber foot so now he is a complete dog again running and jumping on the beach similar to dr. Harrison's research nearly all major orthopedic implant manufacturers are using mimics to design custom hips and knees mimics software has also proven to be a missing link in revolutionising pulmonary and cardiac R&D let me show you what the artificial heart looks like there are two inflow connections and to our flow connections how these are oriented in relationship to a person is the most important aspect and what we did using mimics was to take a number of patients cans and find out the distances between their inflows and their outflows and based on those numbers we shape the device accordingly so that it can fit the most number of dishes mimics also plays a key role in other areas of cardiac rd such as design and analysis of stamps heart valves and cardiac rhythm management devices computer analysis has become more critical and engineers are relying on mimics to link anatomical data to accurate computational fluid dynamics as soon I we believe that the future of patient care lies in a patient specific approach it can also reduce the health care costs simply by eliminating therapies that don't work especially in the field of respiratory medicine people are actively looking for better tools to describe the respiratory system imaging has greatly contributed to that the last couple of years we had fluid out together with the material I'd like to take it one step further we'd like to take these images and construct accurate three-dimensional patient specific models that we can reuse for so flow simulations the materialized mission is to innovate product development resulting in a better and healthier world better and faster patient care ultimately saves lives in the broadest sense for 21st century health.Medical image processing and editing software based on CT\ MRT scanner data. The biomedical engineering suite Mimics Innovation Suite is a complete solution comprised of three strong too : Mimics medical image processing software; 3-matic design, geometry preparation, and optimization software; and Engineering services, consultancy and custom development.you interested in becoming a biomedical engineer let me know in the comments below if you enjoyed this blog you can support us by comments and I'll see you guys next time.Thanks
