Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method incorporating computer-implemented steps, a computing device, a computer readable storage medium, and a client computing device for modelling the alignment of an orthopedic implant for a joint of a patient. The method comprises the computer-implemented steps of being responsive to patient specific information data for deriving patient data, where the patient specific information data is indicative of one or more dynamic characteristics, and being responsive to the patient data for providing 3D model data of the joint, such that the 3D model data shows the orthopedic implant in an alignment configuration based on the patient specific information data.
