Due to their disruptive nature and potential, 3D printing and even more 3D bioprinting raise many ethical and safety concerns that need to be adequately addressed to provide good regulation before entering clinical practice. This article aims to highlight the general ethical concerns associated with the use of additive manufacturing in medicine
A few years back, Wichita State University in Kansas working with the U.S. Army took apart a Black Hawk helicopter piece by piece to 3D scan each component. The detailed 3D digital models now can
The principles are very similar to conventional 3D printing: you start by using a computer program to make a virtual representation of what you’d like to make and then a printer builds it slice
As SmarTech Analysis said in 2021, 3D printing is showing “true signs of disruption within the healthcare industry,” with “scope for major innovation within the medical field through the
To explore the nutrition opportunities and challenges for 3D food printing. Using a qualitative design, semi-structured interviews were conducted with experts from the field of nutrition or with a technical understanding of 3D food printing and a thematic analysis undertaken. Four themes emerged: potential uses, sustainability, technical issues
No longer so. Using 3D scanning (of various types) a digital model of the hip ball and socket can be created. That model is used to create, via 3D printing, the exact replica of the patient part. The benefit are obvious: easier implantation surgery (no need to adapt surrounding tissue) and faster recovery (the patient body does not need to CSi4IRY.
