Welcome!
OrthoCAD Network Research Facility is an inter-disciplinary project to develop orthopaedic implants and surgery planning software, focussing on Total Knee Prosthesis (TKP).
The team comprises engineers, surgeons, and scientists from I.I.T. Bombay, Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai, and Non Ferrous Materials Technology Development Centre (NFTDC), Hyderabad. The project is sponsored by the Office of the Principal Scientific Advisor to the Government of India, New Delhi.
The main goals are:
(1) High-quality low-cost modular TKP system and armamentarium
(2) Implantation simulation software starting from 3D reconstruction of CT images
(3) Dissemination of the technology and methodology to other similar groups.
