Methods: Using patient DICOM data sets (n = 13), we devised a novel, simple, open-source, and rapid modeling process using Drishti software and compared its efficacy and data storage with the 3D Slicer image computing platform. Currently, there is a lack of access to an uncomplicated and inexpensive workflow. Therefore, a fast and accurate workflow will help orthopaedic surgeons to generate high-quality 3D printable models of complex fractures. These high-quality models facilitate the design and printing of patient-specific implants and surgical devices. Anatomically accurate replicas of patients' fracture models can be produced to guide intervention. One of the key applications of this technology is orthopaedic surgical planning for urgent trauma cases. Objectives: Although 3-dimensional (3D) printing is becoming more widely adopted for clinical applications, it is yet to be accepted as part of standard practice.
