Medical technology
3D printing has become a pioneering tool in medical technology, enabling significant improvements in patient care and product development. The ability to produce customized medical products has significantly improved the precision and customizability of solutions in this field.
One notable use of 3D printing in medical technology is the production of customized implants and prostheses. Using patient-specific data, such as CT or MRI scans, high-precision models can be created that exactly match a patient's anatomical requirements. These customized implants offer an optimized fit and function that can improve post-operative healing and enhance the patient's quality of life.
In addition, 3D printing is used to produce surgical instruments and models that help surgeons better plan and perform complex procedures. Printing techniques enable the production of realistic anatomical models that can be used for training, practice and simulation and provide valuable support, particularly when preparing for rare or complicated operations.
