What is it indicated for?

The ProtoMED DigiGuide System is intended for use as a software system and image segmentation system for the transfer of imaging information from a medical scanner such as a CT based system. The input data file is processed by the DigiGuide System and the result is an output data file that is used as the input to a rapid prototyping portion of the system that produces physical outputs including templates for use in maxillofacial surgery. The DigiGuide System is also intended as a pre-operative software tool for simulating/evaluating surgical treatment options.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
