New frontier for 3D printing developed state-of-the-art soft materials able to self-heal
The scientific community is focusing its research into the multiple applications of Hydrogels, polymeric materials which contains a large amount of water, that have the potential to reproduce the features of biological tissues. . This aspect is particularly...
How 3D printing and robots improve knee replacement surgery
Total knee replacement surgery has intrigued me since 1979, when my grandfather had the procedure performed on both knees. The prostheses of that era were designed to anatomically mimic the motion of a knee joint, making them superior to their hinge-action...
Stereolithography: 3D Printed Human Organs and Tissue Now Possible With Revolutionary Method
A new method in high-speed 3D printing utilizes stereolithography and hydrogels--jelly-like materials that speed up the process, making 3D printed organs possible in the near future. . 3D printing was developed by Hideo Kodama in 1981 which was expanded in the next...
3D Printed Shields Protect Guts During Radiotherapy
Researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and MIT have developed 3D printed shields to protect the gastrointestinal tract from the side effects of radiotherapy. . Using CT scans, the devices can be custom printed to suit each patient’s anatomy. The materials...
Rapid 3D Printing Method Developed
It looks like science fiction: A machine dips into a shallow vat of translucent yellow goo and pulls out what becomes a life-sized hand. But the seven-second video, which is sped-up from 19 minutes, is real. The hand, which would take six hours to create using...
instalimb uses 3D scanning and printing to make prosthetic legs more affordable
Instalimb is a Philippines-based company that’s on a mission to make prostheses more affordable. Using 3D scanning and 3D printing technology, the team produces high-quality prosthetics at a faster rate and at a lower price. Instalimb’s CEO, Yutaka Tokushima, first...
Skin and Bones Repaired by Bioprinting During Surgery
Fixing traumatic injuries to the skin and bones of the face and skull is difficult because of the many layers of different types of tissues involved, but now, researchers have repaired such defects in a rat model using bioprinting during surgery, and their work may...
Researchers explore 3D printing materials to print realistic aorta models
Personalized 3D printed models created from cardiac imaging data, mainly from cardiac CT images have been increasingly used in cardiovascular disease, primarily in the preoperative planning and simulation of complex surgical procedures, as well as medical education....
3D printing tech used to operate on 18-month-old
An 18-month-old born with a rare condition — a triangular front of the head — underwent a successful surgery to correct the deformity at a private hospital in the city recently. Normally, the bones forming the skull are separated by joints called sutures, which also...
