Abstract: A system and method for planning and simulating a surgical operation to create a patient-specific spinal implant are disclosed. The system comprises a remote server configured to receive patient-specific medical image data and generate a 3D mesh model of the patient's spine using algorithms that separate vertebral bodies, remove artifacts, and smooth surfaces. A doctor's computer receives the 3D mesh model and allows real-time manipulation of intervertebral spaces to achieve a desired spinal curvature. The server generates a spinal implant design with surface-mapped endplates matching the patient's vertebral anatomy, which is transmitted to a 3D printer for manufacturing. The method includes steps of receiving image data, generating and updating the 3D mesh model based on doctor input, generating the final implant design, and transmitting it for production. The invention enables the creation of patient-specific spinal implants with improved conformity and surgical outcomes.
