Paragraph Number

183

In certain embodiments, the preliminary instrument model may be generated based on anatomic data and/or a bone model or a combination of these, and no model or predesigned structure, template, or prototype. Alternatively, or in addition, the preliminary instrument model may be, or may originate from, a template instrument model selected from a set of template instrument models. Each model in the set of template instrument models may be configured to fit an average patient’s foot. The template instrument model may subsequently be modified or revised by an automated process or manual process to generate the preliminary instrument model used in this disclosure.
