The Impact of Engineering Enabling Technologies on the Further Development of Personalized Orthopedics

Personalized orthopedics became possible in pre-clinical and clinical practice primarily through the application of engineering solutions in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of orthopedic patients. In order to predict the further development of personalized orthopedics, it is necessary to look at which enabling engineering technologies can be applied and where their impact is expected. This paper identifies and analyzes those technologies.
