3D printing in medicine

3D printing in medicine is a technology that creates three-dimensional objects from digital designs. It allows for the production of custom medical devices, implants, and even tissues and organs tailored to individual patients’ needs. For example, surgeons can use 3D-printed models of organs to plan complex surgeries, improving accuracy and outcomes. Additionally, 3D printing can produce prosthetics that fit better and are more affordable. This innovative approach enhances personalized healthcare, making treatments more effective and accessible while also speeding up the design and production process in the medical field.
