title: [Computer-assisted design and manufacture of an orbital cavity prototype].
abstract: Based on the results obtained in two dimensions or extrapolated into three dimensions by current medical imaging techniques (CT scan, magnetic resonance imaging), it is possible, under certain conditions, to create hard complex anatomical specimens, of obvious value in cold surgery. Two successive approaches of design and manufacture of an orbital cavity prototype are presented, as a preliminary to industrial productions soon to be released onto the market.
