Harmonizing implant medicine with nature's design
Times are changing, our thinking is changing, capabilities are changing — and so are our actions. Progressive digitalization and platform thinking are not only demanding but also fostering individualization in implant medicine as a key success factor for tomorrow.
As precise as possible — that‘s the standard for modern implants, extending to preparation and aftercare. These processes are becoming more personalized, in harmony with nature. Pheno4U® aims to continually enhance outcomes for all individuals, and it‘s just the beginning. Pheno4U® improves day by day.

Meeting high expectations
Personalized alignment in Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) with Pheno4U® not only allows surgeons to precisely position each knee implant by aligning it with the patient‘s specific phenotype, but also enhances their ability to offer a personalized treatment path. This individualization extends from diagnosis to planning, surgical tools, and rehabilitation measures, ensuring comprehensive care matching each patient’s needs.
Up to 19% of patients remain unsatisfied
The goal of restoring function and relieving pain is not met in up to 19% of patients undergoing traditional TKA and these patients remain dissatisfied as they experience continued pain or do not regain their full mobility[1].
