Edited CT data acquired during the treatment of a patient after a serious accident are to the
disposal thanks to a longer-term cooperation with St. Ann's Hospital in Brno.
We have commenced a close cooperation with the Faculty of Information Technologies at the
Brno University of Technology presently, which has been engaged in CT and MRI data
editing and 3D models creating long-term already. 3D data acquired in this way should
facilitate an essentially different view of using RP technologies in the construction of knee
joint replacements.

A subsequent verification, measuring, and financial evaluation should help to find out,
whether this way of knee joint replacements production is feasible.
