CurveBeam AI Cast – Reimaging Patient-Specific Deformity Correction Planning

RedPoint Medical 3D, a company that specializes in developing pre-surgical mapping using 3D printing, is revolutionizing foot and ankle surgeries. The foot and ankle are complex structures, making surgical corrections difficult due to the variations and nuances of deformities. 3D printing helps to address these issues by allowing surgeons to visualize their approaches and planning.

In the latest episode of CurveBeam AI, host Dr. Lew Schon spoke with Dr. Adam Perler, Co-Founder & Chief Innovations Officer at RedPoint Medical 3D, to discuss how the company is changing the landscape of foot and ankle surgeries.

Dr. Schon and Dr. Perler discussed the role of 3D printing in surgical techniques, how more experienced surgeons have reacted to the redpointing philosophy, and the process of redpointing from receiving a 3D-printed CAT scan up to the surgical procedure.

Dr. Perler explained that redpointing is a term where a climber meticulously plans their route and executes flawlessly. He envisions redpointing becoming a grammatical term for surgeons to describe their meticulously planned and flawlessly executed surgeries.

RedPoint Medical 3D is at the forefront of using 3D printing to improve surgical techniques, and their pre-surgical mapping technology is helping to optimize post-surgical outcomes.
