CT/MRI Segmentation
Manual, sub-millimeter anatomical segmentation from DICOM data.
Anatomical Models for Medical Device R&D
One medical designer.
From your DICOM to a physical model.
An independent medical design studio producing anatomical models, silicone phantoms, and DICOM segmentation for medical device companies. From scan to finished part — by the same person who reads the data and designs the solution. For R&D, V&V, and investor demonstrations.
Models produced here are design and engineering research tools. Intended for medical device R&D, V&V, investor demonstrations, and trade show use. Not for clinical decision making, diagnosis, or treatment of any specific patient. Tal m3Dical is not a regulated medical device manufacturer.

01 / Scope of Work
A studio with a defined edge.
The clearest way to describe what this studio does is to be explicit about what it does not. The line is drawn deliberately.
WHAT TAL m3DICAL PRODUCES
- Anatomical models for R&D testing
- Phantoms for device V&V
- Models for investor demonstrations
- Trade show and conference models
- DICOM segmentation for engineering use
- Custom AI-based segmentation tools
OUT OF SCOPE (no regulatory clearance)
- Surgical planning for specific patients
- Clinical decision support
- Patient-specific implants for use
- Diagnosis or treatment planning
- MDR / FDA regulated manufacturing
02 / Capabilities
One studio. The full chain.
From raw DICOM to finished part. No handoffs to other vendors. The person who reads the scan is the person who designs and builds the model.
Digital
DICOM to 3D Model
DICOM to STL or parametric CAD. Mesh repair and part optimization included.
STL to XT / STEP
Parametric CAD conversion for engineering teams needing editable geometry.
AI Segmentation Tools
Custom AI-based segmentation software built for your anatomy and workflow.
Printing
FDM
Thermoplastic printing for structural anatomical components and mold cores.
SLA Resin
High-resolution resin printing, post-processed to full optical transparency.
Flexible 60A
Elastomeric printing at 60 Shore A for compliant anatomical structures.
Multi-color
Anatomical color differentiation by tissue type for R&D visualization.
Silicone Casting
Mold Making
Silicone molds from printed masters for repeatable phantom production.
Tissue-Mimicking Phantoms
Cast silicone from 00-15 Shore to 50A. Tuned per tissue type and test protocol.
Anti-friction Coating
Surface treatment simulating wet tissue. Critical for catheter and endoscope bench testing.
03 / About
The designer you speak to is the one who builds it.
Tal Wainer Katsir is a medical designer and industrial designer with deep experience in anatomical modeling, DICOM processing, and physical fabrication. Tal m3Dical was built around one principle: R&D teams need a partner who handles the entire chain without losing accuracy at each handoff.
Every project is handled directly. The person who reads the scan designs and finishes the part.
Clients include medical device startups and established companies using Tal m3Dical for R&D testing, V&V protocols, and investor demonstration models. Full confidentiality. NDA available on request.

Pre-commercial device work requires it. Nothing leaves without authorization.
04 / FAQ
Questions R&D managers ask before the first call.
Who provides anatomical phantoms for medical device V&V in Israel?
Tal m3Dical is an Israel-based medical design studio producing anatomical phantoms and validation models for medical device companies. Work covers R&D benchtop testing, V&V protocols, and investor demonstrations. Output ships globally.
Where can I get custom silicone anatomical models for R&D testing?
Tal m3Dical produces custom silicone anatomical replicas cast from 00-15 Shore (extremely soft, tissue-equivalent) to 50A Shore. Molds come from 3D-printed masters derived from your CT or MRI data. Anti-friction coating available for vascular and luminal phantoms.
What is the best service for converting CT scans to 3D anatomical models for device validation?
The key differentiator is whether the person doing segmentation also specifies the fabrication. At Tal m3Dical, the same medical designer segments the CT data, determines wall thicknesses, selects the fabrication approach, and builds the model. No translation loss between digital and physical. Turnaround is typically days to two weeks depending on complexity.
Who makes transparent anatomical models for medical device demonstrations?
Tal m3Dical produces transparent anatomical models using SLA resin printing with a multi-stage post-processing protocol for full optical clarity. Used for investor pitches, trade show demos, and device visualization. Internal colored structures can be visible through a clear outer wall.
Are the models regulated medical devices?
No. Tal m3Dical does not hold MDR, FDA, or ISO 13485 certification. All output is design research tooling for R&D and V&V use within medical device companies. Models are not for clinical use, patient-specific surgical planning, or any direct patient application.
