We're transforming preoperative care.
Each patient is unique, we strive to establish personalized medicine solutions for patients and physicians alike. Our Pre-Sure® (PRE-operative SUrgical REhearsal) models are made with soft synthetic polymers that mimic human tissue making them ideal for practicing incisions and sutures. They allow you to practice on a 3D printed, patient-specific replica before operating. Personalized patient care improves patient experience, maximizes safety and drives better outcomes.
Improve patient outcomes
Aim for possible time gain, or better margins
Plan for unique challenges
Print all complex anatomic cases
Rehearse without patient risk
Perform more than one rehearsal
Limit costs in actual surgery
