Researchers have unveiled a new 3D‑printable material that can be stretched, sutured, and implanted, edging artificial organs ...
UVM Medical Center uses 3D printing to create low-cost medical training models for rural Vermont paramedics and EMTs. These models offer more frequent practice opportunities for crucial, but ...
Regenerative science reached a new benchmark this month with the unveiling of a 3D-printer capable of transforming simple bone, muscle, and cartilage cells into complex-functioning structures that can ...
Engineers have turned one of nature’s most reviled body parts into a precision tool, using the hollow feeding tubes of dead ...
A plump piece of farm-fresh chicken leg rested on a pristine surface at Harvard Medical School. Skin on and bone in, it was precisely sliced to barely crack the bone. A robot arm swerved over, scanned ...
You may not be able to grow bigger muscles out of thin air, but you can 3D print them in microgravity, scientists at ETH Zurich have now established. "3D printing" refers to a type of manufacturing ...
A team of researchers at Duke University and Harvard Medical School say they’ve developed a new way to 3D print inside the human body, by sending ultrasound waves at an injectable biocompatible ink.
S&T researchers develop new method for 3D printing tissue, with potential to speed up and simplify the process of making ...
SYDNEY, March 28 (Reuters) - A team of biomedical engineers in Australia have developed a small flexible robot that can be used to 3D print biomaterials directly inside the human body, in the hopes of ...
In order to keep surgeries minimally invasive, it would be great if implants could be injected into the body in liquid form, then solidified once in place. Well, a new ultrasound-based 3D printing ...
We’ve seen a few makers 3D scan themselves, and use those to print their own action figures or statuettes. Some have gone so far as building life-sized statues composed of many 3D printed parts. [Ivan ...
