Those of skill in the art will appreciate that the design module 650 offers a large variety of different options and combinations for the constituents of the patient-specific system 606 as well as a plurality of options for the components of the patient-specific system 606 and that such options may be overwhelming. Advantageously, the surgical procedure to be performed, the bone model 404, and user instructions 604 each alone and/or in combination define an initial set of members for the patient-specific system 606. For example, certain well known surgical techniques have specific names and surgeons understand and/or have experience doing these procedures and therefore know what instruments will be needed for the surgical procedure.
