Roger R. Markwald PhD, Presenter: Nothing to Disclose

1) Understand the development of the use of 3D applications in support of surgical reconstruction. 2) Describe the use of 3D Medical Applications in the support of Wounded Warrior Care.

Digital design and manufacturing technologies have been leveraged by the military in support of Wounded Warrior care since before the year 2000. A dedicated service for medical modeling was developed at the WRNMMC to provide 3D planning and manufacturing in the support of the DOD and wounded warrior care, expanding services to surgical simulations, development of surgical guides and custom implants, as well as support of  research, occupational health and prosthetics world- wide. The purpose of this presentation is to present a review of the development of the use of digital design, digital manufacturing, and the establishment of 3D Medical Applications Center in support of Wounded Warrior Care.
