Virtual surgical planning provides the ability to visualize the patient anatomy and pathologic condition, establish pertinent reference points, and simulate osteotomies and reconstruction design in advance of the surgery. Virtual surgical planning is also an ideal environment for improved communication between the patient and the surgical team.
