Abstract
3D printing can quickly identify prototype to form the geometric model of the blood vessel, and then we use the printed model to do surgery simulation, so as to help the doctor to evaluate the success rate of the operation. However, current modeling technologies of 3D printing are based on explicit modeling method. These explicitly represented models need an extremely complicated geometric transformation before printing, which leads to damage of models. In this paper, we adopt implicit modeling technique to reconstruct the vascular model, and then propose a vascular model editing method for 3D printing, which includes extending the blood vessel inlets and outlets, designing the open section, and constructing the wall. Experimental results show that the extension of the vascular port makes model completely retain the information of the blood vessel inlets and outlets, which facilitate subsequent operation.
