3DP in HEALTHCARE
3DPrinting in Healthcare ranges from printing prototypes, anatomic models for surgical planning, educational models, mechanical testing, orthotics and prosthetics, surgical guides, implants and bioprinting.
PRECISION ANATOMIC MODELS (PAMs)*
The term "Precision Anatomic Models" was coined by our team to describe real-sized, exact replicas of individual patient anatomy, derived from high resolution clinically obtained DICOM images.
Coming soon - examples of PAMs and Case Studies of clinical use cases will be featured here.
ORDER A MODEL FOR YOUR NEXT CASE
Do you have an upcoming case? Would you like to show your patient their own anatomy, plan your osteotomies, pre-select and even contour the instrumentation and prepare your team and trainees? Doing these steps preoperatively has shown to decrease OR time and use of intraoperative imaging.
