EmbedMed is intended for use as a software system and image segmentation system for the transfer of imaging information from a medical scanner such as a CT based system. The is processed by the system, and the result is an output data file. This file may then be provided as digital models or used an input to an additive manufacturing portion of the system. The additive manufacturing portion of the system produces physical outputs including anatomical models and surgical guides for use in maxillofacial surgeries. EmbedMed is also intended as a pre-operative software tool for simulating/evaluating surgical treatment options.

EmbedMed utilizes Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) software to manipulate 3D medical images to create digital and additive manufactured, patient-specific physical anatomical models and surgical guides for use in surgical procedures. Imaging data files are obtained from the surgeons for treatment planning and various patient-specific products that are manufactured with biocompatible photopolymer resins using additive manufacturing (stereolithography).
