It is reported that this is a bone-joining operation, and in order to clarify the injury situation, and to develop a better surgical plan, the doctor used the CT scan data of the injury to make a 1:1 3D printing model before surgery. The model was made by Leapfrog's Bolt-type 3D printer and took 3-12 hours (depending on bone size) at a cost of just $10.
