Embodiments provide a method for determining an alternating magnetic field (AMF) transmitter design that produces a magnetic field that achieves a more uniform surface current or heating of an implant. Embodiments may utilize the method to be applicable to different geometries of implants and AMF transmitters. Embodiments produce a non-uniform magnetic field that in turn produces a more uniform current density/distribution on the implant surface. This leads to uniform heating and consistent biofilm reduction, while minimizing damage to adjacent tissues. Also, the differences in electrical properties such as conductivity, permittivity, and permeability of the implant components can be factored into the design process to achieve a uniform current density/distribution across components. An ultimate benefit derived from embodiments described herein is consistent biofilm reduction, inactivation, eradication, destruction, and/or removal and improved safety arising from heat conduction into surrounding tissues.

Bone implants, assemblies, and methods thereof. The implants may include non-threaded triangular implants configured to promote fixation and fusion of the sacroiliac joint. The implants may have a triangular body configured to prevent or minimize rotational motion of the implant. The implants may include an inner core or an outer shell, which provides structural support for a lattice structure. The structural geometry may be generated through topology optimization software, such as finite element analysis, based on anatomical loading conditions for the implant.

A system and method for planning and simulating a surgical operation to create a patient-specific spinal implant are disclosed. The system comprises a remote server configured to receive patient-specific medical image data and generate a 3D mesh model of the patient's spine using algorithms that separate vertebral bodies, remove artifacts, and smooth surfaces. A doctor's computer receives the 3D mesh model and allows real-time manipulation of intervertebral spaces to achieve a desired spinal curvature. The server generates a spinal implant design with surface-mapped endplates matching the patient's vertebral anatomy, which is transmitted to a 3D printer for manufacturing. The method includes steps of receiving image data, generating and updating the 3D mesh model based on doctor input, generating the final implant design, and transmitting it for production. The invention enables the creation of patient-specific spinal implants with improved conformity and surgical outcomes.
