Medical Modeling has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for its VSP system product line, used in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
VSP (virtual surgical planning) technology allows users to plan maxillofacial surgical procedures in a virtual environment and transfer that plan to the patient using innovative models, templates, and surgical guides, the company noted in a press release.
VSP Orthognathics is used for applying virtual surgical planning and CAD/CAM surgical splints to the area of orthognathic surgery, while VSP Reconstruction is used in reconstruction of the mandible or maxilla using vascularized grafts from other areas of the body.
The VSP product line is also available in Canada.
