Paragraph Number

242

In one embodiment, the provision module 1230 may include a generator 1232 and/or a selection module 1234. In one embodiment, the generator 1232 is configured to generate a preliminary cutting guide model 1238. In certain embodiments, the generator 1232 may generate or create the preliminary cutting guide model based on anatomic data and/or a bone model or a combination of these and no other inputs. (e.g. no model or predesigned structure, template, or prototype). Alternatively, or in addition, the generator 1232 may generate or create the preliminary cutting guide model using a standard set of features or components that can be combined to form the preliminary cutting guide model. The generated preliminary cutting guide model may subsequently be modified or revised by an automated process, and/or manual process, to generate the preliminary cutting guide model used in this disclosure.
