3D-PRINTING
CT-Guidelines
General guidelines
Use minimal slice thickness available
Try to orientate the bones of interest perpendicular to the CT gantry
Always upload the complete DICOM series
Please always define the region of interest (ROI)
Specific guidelines
For limb deformities please also scan the contralateral limb
Please include the joints proximal and distal to the bone of interest
For contrast studies please include pre AND post contrast series
3D-printed models of bones usually have a higher resolution than those of soft tissue
3D-prints from scans with higher slice thicknesses are possible but the quality may be reduced
