Preoperative planning is recognized as an essential step in elective surgery and as an important component in trauma surgery. Many Surgeons are still conducting fracture treatment planning, joint replacement and deformity correction procedures on the basis of two-dimensional (2-D) conventional X-ray images with the tracing procedure. TraumaCad was designed by Surgeons to provide a better way to conduct procedure planning.

TraumaCad allows surgeons to develop a pre-operative surgery plan via clinical manipulation of digital orthopedic images utilizing the best in image processing techniques, including the application of digitally rendered and accurately sized fixation systems or prosthetic systems. The application also includes a set of tools to visualize the reduction of fractures, to determine the axis of deformity, to simulate osteotomy procedures, and much more.

This software allows greater accuracy and simplicity, when compared to traditional analog templating techniques and other digital solutions commonly used today.

Joint Replacement:

TraumaCad's optimization of joint replacement procedures is ideal for complex reconstructions and osteotomies as well as for standard primary replacements. Surgeons evaluate the post-operative anatomical alignment of various surgical scenarios (cutting, displacing, implanting) to create an optimal surgical plan. Incorporated into the patient file, TraumaCad offers an easily accessible database of implants, including template libraries for total ankle, total knee, total hip, and total shoulder replacement.

Trauma Planning:

Designed to meet the needs of the trauma environment, TraumaCad can define fracture fragments, move, rotate and copy fragments on DICOM images and between images to reconstruct and accurately restore the anatomy on multi-view images prior to templating.

Pediatric & deformity planning:

TraumaCad helps pediatric orthopedic surgeons to take anatomical measurements, compare them to normative standards and simulate corrective procedures. Easy-to-use wizards help surgeons produce a wide range of anatomical measurements (growth multiplier, acetabular index, mal-alignment, spinal deformity, etc.).  All measurements and evaluations are integrated into patient files, for an easy transition to digital radiology.
