Scandinavian Customized Prosthesis (SCP) was founded in 1991 on the basis of research activities at St. Olavs Hospital, Trondheim University Hospital and The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim

Vision The vision of SCP is to improve life for patients and surgeons by offering well proven and well functioning custom implants for improved quality of life for the patient.

Mission SCP wants to be the leading supplier of custom hip implants based on research, studies and advanced computer based systems for pre-operative planning, production and surgical technique. SCP offers through advanced planning and production systems, high quality and cost effective custom hip solutions with easy to use purchasing and planning and short lead time.


Unique® custom femoral prosthesis
"Fit the implant to the patient, not the patient to the implant" SCP strongly believes that patient specific planning of operation and design of prosthesis will have great benefits for the patient in terms of optimal function and long life time expectancy of the implant. SCP also believes that pre-operative planning to secure a predictable operation progress and a safe, precise and secure result will be more common practice by surgeons.

SCP has in cooperation with the Trondheim University Hospital with Prof. Benum, MD, PhD and Dr. Aamodt, MD, PhD since 1991 developed the concept for a custom hip prosthesis, Unique®. In 2006, more than 1200 hips are operated with Unique custom stem with no major technical problems. The clinical results are very promising.

SCP has developed state of the art computer system for planning, design, manufacture and quality control for effective and high quality production of custom implants based on medical images. SCP offers consulting in solutions for patients with abnormal hip anatomy. SCP also offers consulting on planning, design and production of implants and navigation tools for other purposes such as tumor prosthesis.
