Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is a system for trialing implants used in orthopedic surgery. The invention is directed to a composite trial implant that employs a polymer substrate having a size and shape to approximate abone plate, and radio-opaque indicia disposed thereon. The trial implant allows a surgeon to determine the correct size, hole configuration, and cross-sectional profile with a simulated device, thatpermits more rapid and accurate selection of a permanent implant. 本发明公开种用于对矫形外科手术中使用的植入物进行试验的系统。本发明涉及种复合试验植入物,该复合试验植入物采用尺寸和形状近似于骨板的聚合物基底,以及设置在其上的不透射线标记。该试验植入物允许外科医生用模拟装置确定正确的尺寸、孔构型和横截面轮廓,从而允许更快速且准确地选择永久性植入物。
