3D printing (3DP) or additive manufacturing (AM) is used to convert a 3D model into a three dimensional object and the material used for this purpose is called 3DP material. 3D printing has begun to flourish in various application areas in healthcare such as dental, medical, implants, drug manufacturing and so on. Continue reading “Tissue Engineering and Dental Implants Set to Boost 3D Printing in Healthcare to a $1.2 Billion Market by 2020”
A study conducted by a team of scientists and recently published on the Dovepress portal showed that it is possible to 3D print patient-specific, biodegradable medicinal implants to more effectively cure bone infections and bone cancer. That, however, is just the beginning of a story that is nothing short of amazing. Continue reading “Ordinary Replicator 2X Used to 3D Print Bone Cancer Treatments”
Researchers have found a way to regenerate torn or damaged knee menisci using 3D printing and implanted recombinant human proteins. Continue reading “New Hope for Knees: 3D Printing and Proteins”
it is with the range of new polymers now available that offers the most exciting aspect of 3D printing technology development. We are now leaving behind the traditional ABS and PLA which we have become so used to, fond of and somewhat bored with. However, with innovative new materials this is all about to change. Continue reading “New Polymers Set to Revolutionize 3D Printed Implants”
With new “inks” containing semiconductors, researchers have been able to print LEDs for the first time. A 3-D printer can already make a prototype or spare part out of metal or polymer. Researchers at Princeton University have now taken an important step toward expanding the technology’s potential… Continue reading “3D Printing Bio-Electronic Parts”
On this day when we honor our veterans, it’s especially gratifying to congratulate OsirisBiomed 3D on winning the $10,000 grand prize at the Greater Philadelphia Veteran Network’s (GPVN) second annual Veteran Entrepreneur “Shark Tank” Business Pitch. Continue reading “Veterans recognized for plan to 3D-print patient-specific medical implants”
A team of researchers at Louisiana Tech University has developed an innovative method for using affordable, consumer-grade 3D printers and materials to fabricate custom medical implants that can contain antibacterial and chemotherapeutic compounds for targeted drug delivery. Continue reading “Louisiana Tech researchers use 3D printers to create custom medical implants”
3D printing is becoming increasingly implemented in the operating room, with surgeons turning to the technology to create tailor-made implants for their patients. This time, surgeons at Southampton General Hospital have 3D printed a hip joint for 71-year-old Meryl Richards and have used her own stem cells to hold it in place.
