Fine Osteotomy™ Case Planning Series: Step 2. Design
Once imaging is complete, the planning process moves into the design phase.
Using the patient’s 3D model and imaging data, the team develops a patient‑specific surgical plan centered on the intended correction.
Patient‑specific guides and plates are then designed based on alignment targets, bone anatomy, and screw positioning.
The goal: support a planned correction tailored to the patient, before entering the OR.
Next up: Communication & Approval, where surgeons review and interact with the case plan in Preplink™.

Meet Virginie Ruest, Candidate to the Engineering Profession (C.E.P.), Research & Development
Innovation in orthopedics begins long before a procedure reaches the operating room.
As part of Bodycad's Research & Development team, Virginie collaborates with engineering, clinical, software, quality, and regulatory teams to develop patient-centered solutions designed to improve surgical efficiency, accuracy, and outcomes.
Her work on the BC Fine TTO™ project reflects Bodycad's commitment to advancing personalized orthopedic care through innovation and collaboration.
Get to know Virginie and discover what inspires her, both at work and beyond.
What actually happens behind a patient-specific Fine Osteotomy™ case?
We’re taking you behind the scenes of the Bodycad case planning workflow, step by step.
From imaging and design to approval, manufacturing, and QC, this series breaks down how a case moves from planning to procedure.
Step 1: Imaging.
CT scans are converted into 3D models, while long-standing X-rays help evaluate alignment and weight-bearing mechanics.
It’s the starting point for the entire planning process.
Next up: Design, where imaging data becomes a patient-specific surgical plan.

New research reveals how 3D-printed patient-specific guides are transforming corrective knee surgery, achieving 88% accuracy and dramatically improving patient outcomes.
The game-changer? Custom surgical guides created from CT scans that fit each patient's anatomy like a puzzle piece. The result: better precision, faster recovery, and 8.4/10 patient satisfaction.
This is what happens when precision meets surgical innovation, personalized healthcare that actually delivers measurable results.

Inside the Fine TTO™ Workflow
FDA Cleared. Patent Pending.
Considering a patient‑specific TTO solution is one thing; understanding how it fits into your pre‑op planning and OR flow is another.
With Fine TTO™, the process begins with imaging: a lateral radiograph of the knee at 30° flexion and a CT scan comprise the minimum data set. The surgeon then prescribes the osteotomy type and target values (TT–TG and Caton‑Deschamps Index), and Bodycad plans the osteotomy accordingly and confirms the final situation, including screw number, lengths, and positions, before any manufacturing.
Once approved, the patient‑specific guides and components are produced and delivered as a dedicated kit. Intra‑operatively, the guides are designed to match the bony anatomy, support guided cuts, help position the tubercle according to the plan, and facilitate screw fixation, followed by structured post‑operative care.
