An accurate three-dimensional (3D) model of bone knee is the most important part for implant or total replacement of kneejoint. Having increasing complexity of human bone in medical science, now a day reverse engineering and rapid prototyping approach isvery useful to create duplicate bone structure of existing human need in case of emergency replacement. Reverse engineering is one ofthe process by which 3D CAD model can be easily generated .Different techniques available for generating CAD models. From literaturesurvey, It is conclude that CT scans provide accurate models other than different MRI or X-ray data. The present work describes themethodology applied in the development of an anatomically detailed three dimensional knee model from CT scan data using Mimicssoftware. The final output of model is useful for fabricating artificial knee joint.
