WORKSHOP: Image-based Simulation for Biomechanics, Materials Applications, and Reverse Engineering

This workshop is aimed at those interested in 3D reconstruction from radiology images, and in using 3D image data (as obtained from CT, Micro-CT, MRI and Ultrasound) to generate Rapid Prototyping, CAD, and Finite Element models.

Participants will learn:
•    how to generate computer models from your 3D image data
•    how to import and position CAD files in the image data
•    how to integrate with CAD Software as well as FE solvers such as Ansys, Abaqus, Comsol, LS-Dyna, etc.

Are you interested in being a part of our Materialise
high-end image processing software product? For our Biomedical Department we
are looking for motivated Application Engineers.

New version introduces 3D LiveWire to easily segment very complex or low-quality scan data. 

Materialise introduces the Medical Innovations Conference 2008 in Vienna, Austria. Get inspired by the talents of Mozart, Strauss and Von Beethoven and join the experts to guide you through the infinite possibilities Materialise Medical can offer you in medical image processing and surgery planning.

Leuven, November 19, 2007. Materialise
launches Mimics 11.1, the new release of the company’s medical imaging and
editing software. This new release builds on the last one, enhancing export to
FEA even more. Overall usability and performance were improved with some very
nice new features. Take a look at our website for more information.

June 14, 2007, Materialise released a new and improved version
of its image processing software Mimics. It will again raise the bar in image
processing and editing based on stacked data such as CT and MRI. Continuous
development and support have resulted in the release of Mimics 11.

Mimics is a powerful, yet easy to use software, that boosts
cutting edge research to an even higher level by creating accurate 3D
structures from scanned images and providing a link to Rapid Prototyping (RP),
Computer Aided Engineering and Design (CAE/CAD), Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). It also allows to perform virtual surgery.

June 1st  2007, Materialise announced the winners of the Mimics Innovation Awards 2007 at the International Mimics User Group Meeting in Washington, D.C.
