Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates generally to a method and system used to capture three-dimensional images for the purposes of, but not limited to, designing and fabricating medical devices and other medical-related uses of three-dimensional images. The present system generally includes a three dimensional digitizing system, direct conversion Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, a Central Fabrication Network (CFN) comprising of a Central Fabrication Center (CFC) and/or at least one other fabrication center, and preferably a network communicatively connecting at least one practitioner to a Central Design Center (CDC). Additionally, the present invention may include certain design protocols as well as training/education for its practitioners.
