3D models for Hepatobiliary Surgery
- Higher proportion of negative resection margins
- Helps predict vascular invasion
- Stimulates the design of new surgical techniques
- Reduction in intraoperative bleeding
- Accurate calculation of liver and tumour volumes
- Better understanding of liver anatomy and spatial relationships
Our 3D models offer features tailored to real clinical needs, enabling personalised surgical planning for across specialties and pathologies.
Resection simulation
Plan subsegmentectomies, ruled and unruled resections, and tumourectomies.
Biliary variants
Shows a detailed analysis of biliary variants and the Bismuth-Corlette classification.
Volumetric study
Details of the total and remaining volume of segments and lesions.
Creation of vascular territories
Customised vascular territories to improve understanding of vascularisation.

Testimonials from surgeons who already use our 3D models
”With the 3D model, we can accurately determine the dimensions of the tumour, detecting any involvement of other organs or vascular structures to avoid unexpected complications during the operation.
Dr. Manuel BarreraHead of General and Digestive Surgery. Hospiten Rambla University Hospital, Tenerife.
”The model allowed us to confirm the anatomy, assess the relationship between the tumour and the aberrant artery, and verify the absence of vascular invasion.
Dr. Miguel Ángel Gómez BravoHPB and Transplant Surgeon. Virgen del Rocío University Hospital, Seville.
