‘Working with Fluxus can be described on 2 levels. From a human/professional point of view I have never had any problems. 3D anatomy programs applied to clinical practice can be either very complex and difficult to handle; or very simple in their final format with little possibility of improving the results. The professional team at Fluxus provides tools that are constantly being developed and are highly ‘plastic’, which allows us to adjust and personalize the results to each case. A simple phone call allows us to discuss the problem or the needs of the professional and almost immediately we obtain results that solve the problem or identified need. From the professional point of view, Fluxus is a tool ready for clinical use, always evolving and very easy to use with a wide range of action buttons that allows the clinician to adjust the results obtained to the medical needs in a very personalized way. It has underlined the product’s potential for the future: new designs and needs are reflected in an extraordinary tool”.
