Reverse Engineering in Medical-Bio Modeling and Bioengineering

Reverse Engineering (RE) is a process of redesigning, reassembling and restructuring of an existing part. Though it had been a great use in the development of many new designs, products and concepts, it has now been very much utilized in the design and development of the medical implants, prosthetics, and orthopaedic components and also in the tissue engineering. Re has shown successful results in the field of dentistry wherein doctors are utilizing this for maxillofacial surgery and trauma cases. The geometric modeling of the scanned images can be well termed as Bio modeling which is used in the fresh preparation of the personalized implants may be hip, knee, facial injuries. Reverse Engineering in medical (RIM) is a new dimension to research and development in the medical field. It is a challenge to the engineers as well as the surgeons to utilize it for proper shape, geometry and structure of the biomedical objects and take the challenge ahead. This paper gives a direction wherein RIM is utilized and what are the leading factors, software and platforms which can finally furnish a dream to success.
