3D Planning & Patient‑Specific Guides for Total Knee Arthroplasty

3D‑Arthro Knee is a complete planning and patient‑specific instrumentation platform designed for high‑volume total knee arthroplasty. It combines fast, intuitive 3D planning with reliable surgical guides, enabling a smooth transition from preoperative strategy to execution in the operating room.

Developed to integrate seamlessly into existing implant ecosystems, 3D‑Arthro Knee supports both surgeons and industry partners with a coherent, scalable, and clinically robust solution.

Your rules. Our execution.

A knee platform shaped around your offering

Each 3D-Arthro Knee platform is built around your implants, surgical approach, and market positioning ensuring consistency across your portfolio and immediate usability for your surgeon network.

The result: a differentiated, partner-ready platform that fits naturally into daily clinical practice.

Product Overview

Structured planning, designed for repeatability

3D-Arthro Knee transforms CT data into a complete planning environment for total knee arthroplasty.

Patient-specific 3D bone models are generated, key anatomical landmarks are identified, and implant positioning is initialized according to predefined rules.

All information is presented within a clear, single-page interface combining planning parameters with intuitive 2D and 3D visualizations supporting clarity, repeatability, and robust industrial deployment.

The platform is fully cloud-based and accessible without local installation. This architecture supports centralized updates, controlled configuration management, and scalable deployment across regions and markets.

 

Planning rules and implant logic can be customized to match specific product lines, ensuring long-term alignment between the digital platform and the implant roadmap.

Cloud-Based Architecture

Core Planning Capabilities

AI-Assisted Bone Segmentation

AI-based algorithms automatically segment femoral and tibial structures from CT scans, reducing manual processing and ensuring consistent generation of clean, ready-to-use 3D bone models.

 

AI-Assisted Anatomical Landmark Detection

Mechanical and anatomical axes, rotational references, and resection levels are identified automatically. A built-in quality control layer ensures reliability across varied anatomies and standardized planning output.

Full 3D Visualization Environment

High-resolution 3D reconstructions allow detailed inspection of anatomy, alignment, and implant positioning. Components can be visualized on intact or resected bone, supporting precise evaluation within a unified environment.

​Pre-Configured Implant

PlanningCases are initialized using implant-specific rules based on manufacturer guidelines. This provides a consistent starting point while allowing controlled adjustment of sizes, positioning, and orientation in line with the defined product strategy.

 

Planning Metrics & Reporting

Key alignment and resection parameters including varus valgus, flexion extension, tibial slope, rotation, and cut depths are available throughout the workflow. Automatic report generation consolidates planning data and visual outputs into standardized PDF documentation.

Patient-Specific Surgical Guides

Designed to transfer the plan to the operating room

3D-Arthro Knee includes patient-specific femoral and tibial guides derived directly from validated planning data. Guide design follows implant-specific logic and surgical principles defined at platform level.

Key Design Characteristics

Hybrid Single-Guide Concept

Compact guides integrate pin holes and captured cutting slots for both femur and tibia, supporting accurate and reproducible execution.

Technique-Agnostic Architecture

Guide geometries can be configured for femur-first or tibia-first workflows, ensuring compatibility with different surgical techniques.

Optimized Bone Contact

Multiple bone-to-guide contact zones enhance stability and positioning accuracy.

Captured cutting slots are aligned with the digital plan and compatible with standard OR saw blades. Metallic drill sleeves support controlled pin placement, while engraved anatomical references facilitate intraoperative orientation.

The tibial guide integrates alignment and rotational features to support mechanical axis verification and postoperative rotation assessment.

Manufacturing & Regulatory Framework

Patient-specific guides are produced in certified facilities in Europe and the United States. This dual manufacturing setup supports short lead times, regional scalability, and secure supply chains.

The guides comply with European regulatory requirements and are approved for clinical use.

A Configurable Foundation for Knee Arthroplasty

3D-Arthro Knee is not positioned as an end-user service, but as a configurable digital and manufacturing platform for knee arthroplasty solutions.

It enables implant manufacturers to deliver a coherent planning and guidance product aligned with their strategy and ready for market deployment.
