THE DESIGN METHOD OF CUSTOM-MADE ARTIFICIAL HIP-JOINT AND COMPUTER READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM PERFORMING THE METHOD

摘要

A design method of a custom-made artificial hip-joint and a computer readable recording medium storing a software program performing the method are provided to correct the position of a femur and the length of a leg in a software program more accurately by modularizing the design for operating tools of an artificial hip-joint. The body design proper to the characteristic of a patient or an artificial hip joint implant of various forms is selected(S2), and a neck and a head proper to the body design is designed(S3). A femur system for an artificial hip-joint or an operating tool is designed by unifying the body design with the neck and hip design(S4). Based on the unified design, the femur system for the artificial hip-joint and the model and plan for the operating tool are automatically produced(S5).
