  • POROUS METAL IMPLANTS MADE FROM CUSTOM MANUFACTURED SUBSTRATES
    Publication number: 20140010951
    Abstract: A porous metal implant and method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. The method involves rapidly manufacturing a porous substrate layer-by-layer. The method can include the steps of depositing a first layer of a material and depositing a second layer of the material on top of the first layer. In this manner, a porous substrate having a plurality of ligaments or struts, which define a plurality of pores, can be built.
