Convenient design method for customized implants based on bionic vein structure features.

ABSTRACT: Matching implants to bones is crucial for customized orthopedic medicine. Existing methods for designing customized implants predominantly adopt the parameterized deformation method that uses a fragmented representation of semantic parameters. Such a representation cannot provide information integration management and therefore restricts the retrieval of information regarding implant features and the improvement of customized design efficiency. Therefore, this study proposes a rapid design method for customized implants based on bionic vein structure features. First, a bionic vein structure was designed to represent the implant type. Second, the bionic vein structure was represented by a digraph structure with morphological and dimensional features. Finally, the implant model was rapidly b
