What is it indicated for?

The Materialise CT-Modeller System is intended for use as a software interface and

image segmentation system for the transfer of imaging information from a medical

scanner such as a Magnetic Resonance imaging scanner or CT scanner. The input

data file is processed by the CT-Modeller System and the result is an output data file

which may then be used as input data for a CAD or Rapid Prototyping System. The

CT-Modeller System which is the subject of this 510(k) premarket notification is

confined solely to the software image segmentation system.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
