Over 100 US Patients Treated in Catalyst Orthoscience and 3D-Side Collaboration

Catalyst OrthoScience and 3D-Side are excited to announce that over 100 patients in the US have been treated with Catalyst™ 3D Targeting Software.

Catalyst™ 3D Targeting Software is an FDA 510(k)-cleared preoperative shoulder replacement planning software created by 3D-Side for Catalyst OrthoScience.

The platform includes both anatomic and reverse planning capabilities that equip the surgeon with an advanced understanding of each patient’s unique pathology, and deliver an individualized surgical plan prior to the procedure with the ultimate goal of improving patient care.

The software is intended for use during the preparation of shoulder arthroplasties for adult patients only. It displays surgical treatment options that are created based on 3D CAD files generated from multi-slice DICOM data from a CT scanner, and uses Artificial Intelligence during the segmentation process.

The system is a web-based platform wherein the physician can review CAD files in 3D and modify the position and orientation of different 3D objects. It includes an implant library with 3D digital representations of various implant models so that ideal implant positioning and sizing can be achieved based on the physician’s input.

After physician approval, the treatment plan is saved on the server and can be used as a reference during surgery.
