METHOD FOR GENERATING A MANUFACTURING MODEL FOR A MEDICAL IMPLANT

A method is disclosed for generating a manufacturing model for a medical implant. In the method, image data of a body region is provided, and regions corresponding to structures of different tissue are segmented; a shape of the implant is defined on the basis of the regions corresponding to the structures and an interaction with the implant is determined for at least one structure in a patient-specific manner on the basis of the image data; for a number of structures, the respective interaction with the implant is checked for an exceedance of a critical stress; and the shape of the implant is defined as a manufacturing model. The manufacturing model is then stored on a non-transitory data carrier and/or output via an interface if the critical stress is not exceeded for any checked interaction of the implant with the respective structure.
