Abstract: A system and method of interactively communicating and displaying patient-specific information is provided. The method includes acquiring two-dimensional or three-dimensional computer images of a patient-specific body part and using a computer to generate an interactive three-dimensional computer model based off of the acquired computer images of the patient-specific body part. Further, the method includes generating a physical three-dimensional model based off of the computer model, and incorporating one or more indicators into the physical three-dimensional model. Each indicator is in communication with the computer. Furthermore, the method includes interacting with the computer model to select an attribute of the body part, and indicating on the physical three-dimensional model the selected attribute with the indicators.
