Original Abstract

3D printing and associated 3D scanning is rapidly spreading into the various domains related to human life. But still, there are mostly technical domains (at least a bit) getting involved. The medicine is one of domains, where 3D models are not much used yet, even though many opportunities of possible 3D scanning applications exist. Next, there are various different imaging modalities and measuring systems used in present medicine, but all of them are used separately, without any interconnection. Multi-modal data fusion of measured values and captured images, merging all heterogeneous data into one single multilayer 3D model could provide new information, which could help to find the right diagnosis and plan the appropriate therapy. Spatial resolution of such models can be also enlarged by one dimension and all these data could be registered in relation to time. The core of proposed scanning and modelling system is formed by robotic 3D scanner [1], disposing with very high accuracy (up to 0.1 mm) and flexibility (due to use of 6 axis robotic manipulator) providing basic 3D model [2], onto which the data from other modalities are projected. This work is focused on searching for medical 3D scanning applications, design of its technical solutions and development of appropriate hardware and software customized for specific medical applications.
