"I
did not really believe the treatment you were proposing, but after
seeing the model, I have no doubts. Let's get on with it!"
A. Heron, Patient with distal Radial malunion
"It is brilliant - to actually see what the problem is, and the bone
with all its structure, means that a lot of the guess work is taken
out. It gives a lot of satisfaction to the patient to actually see
what is going on!"
SW, Patient pain with an elbow problem
"When you proposed a surgical repair I was not convinced. The 3D image
is so much clearer that I now have the confidence to go that way."
State Attourney with shoulder fracture.
"We can see how close the nerves are to the bone lump. This is obviously
difficult surgery so good luck."
Patient with bone tumour in arm.

"The Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma increasingly uses True
Life Anatomy reconstruction for planning of complex surgery - we
find it assists with pre-operative planning and demonstrates the
advantage of virtual surgery in complex cases.
The junior surgeons have embraced this technology, and I can see
this becoming routine with the potential for significant improvements
in operative techniques including combinations with controlled minimally
invasive surgery and less traumatic approaches to complex fractures,
reconstructive osteotomies and complex joint reconstruction.
Professor and Head
Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma,
"3D images are nothing new, but the ability to turn the fracture
around, and look inside it, is something I have not seen before,…..and
you can even show the patient."
Dr Rob Sharp FRCS
British Trauma Surgeon
"…You are developing the product that I have been waiting for and
that the global orthopaedic and hand surgery community desperately
needs, and I would be grateful to be able to fan the flames of your
success …."
Dr Charlie Eaton MD,
Hand Surgeon, Florida www.eatonhand.com
"I am an orthopaedic surgeon in London, England. I stumbled across
your software on the net and I have to say it is really quite impressive.
Very easy to use indeed."
Orthopaedic Surgeon
London, England
"The animations are very impressive and dramatically demonstrate
the patho-anatomy in wrist ligament injuries."
"Looks great and better then what I was able to do with the same
data."
"Currently our hospital isdeveloping its PACS system, so this is
a good time to work on a seamless way to push the data. Look forward
to working with you."
Professor Orthopaedic Surgery , University Medical Center
"The shoulder hemi image is awesome. Do you have any THA or TKA
images? I would love to see them. This looks like some interesting
stuff."
M.B. MD Orthopaedic Surgeon

"This
certainly gives the best virtual colonoscopy images I have seen,
and very quick too. I think there will be a big place for this technology"
Assoc. Professor, Radiologist
"..One day (maybe in a year or two) we will be able to export 3D
images from the CT scanner to allow the referring doctor to interact
with them on their own computer…"
Radiologist
"Many Radiologist have often felt that 3D images were of little
value to them, but did have some value to the referring physician….."
"…..I would be willing to go out on a limb and boldly suggest that
within 3 - 5 years this (3D imaging) will become the technique of
choice for delivery of our CT services."
Elliot K Fishman MD FACR

Professor of Radiology and Oncology
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
"It is interesting - this technology provides about the first images
to the clinician that can not be delivered by film. This could be
a real selling point for its integration into PACS and increase
the appeal of PACS with the clinicians."
Director of Radiology
"I think it has something definitive to offer over and above what
is currently available on most PACS workstations particularly in
relation to fracture fragment manipulation and superimposition of
implants."
Radiologist, Oxford UK
"I liked it, tried it on my own dataset, and had a little trouble
separating a talar bone chip from the rest of the foot, but overall,
I thought it was very good."
Radiologist, St. Petersburg, Florida, U.S.A.

"Having
watched the development of True Life Anatomy from its inception,
I am very excited about the current applications and the future
possibilities of this technology. The ability to manipulate 3-D
reconstructions of musculoskeletal images on the office desktop
provides a quantum leap for clinicians, researchers and instructors.
In an environment of rapidly expanding imaging options for clinical
management and for biomedical research, TLA is at the front of the
line for making these images accessible to the end-users."
Professor of Orthopaedic Research
Head of the Bone & Joint Centre
"I have been using it for some time as it gives me the most flexibility
and visual impact of any I have seen.... really worth a look at!"

"I like it!! The Technology is great."
"Our current digital imaging software has a poor 3D rendering function,
and we are interested in a better product."
Marketing Manager,
Orthopaedic Imaging Company
"The RuBaMAS website and TLA software looks impressive, very exciting
technology!
If I can assist further here, please don't hesitate to contact me."
National Business Relationship Manager,
Major PACS Vendor
"It was a great pleasure meeting you at RSNA. I've done a preliminary
check with our specialty markets group and they have real interest
in considering how your application would fit into their overall
Orthopaedic offering."
