Paragraph Number

304

The patient specific cutting guide can be used by a user, such as a surgeon, to guide making one or more resections of a structure, such as a bone for a procedure. Accordingly, a preliminary cutting guide model can be used to generate a patient specific cutting guide model. The patient specific cutting guide model may be used in a surgical procedure to address, correct, or mitigate effects of the identified deformity and may be used to generate a patient specific cutting guide that can be used in a surgical procedure for the patient.
