CT scan and 3D reconstruction. Note in the video title it says "MRI", this is incorrect. This video is an example of extracting solid bone surfaces from a CT scan. Also possibly it's useful as an example for ladder safety.
If someone has a (free) method of getting such a model into CAD form from CT scan please let me know, as I'd love to have a zcorp-printed prototype of the fracture.
Another question for you all medicos out there: I was told this was a "dislocation and bone chip" injury. How doggone big would that crack in the humeral head have to be for y'all to use more alarming words?
Hmmm... Well, all I know is the info in the files says "Modality: CT", and it looked like a CT machine from the inside.
