An international team of scientists and clinicians has announced the launch of a new open-access 3D portal that allows users to explore intact human organs in unprecedented detail—from the whole organ ...

A team of University of Colorado researchers has developed a new strategy for transforming medical images, such as CT or MRI scans, into incredibly detailed 3D models on the computer. The advance ...

TEMPLE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Temple-based biotech startup SiMMo3D today announces the launch of its simulated, 3D-printed organ models for surgical planning, biomedical research and education that ...

Researchers from the University of Minnesota, with support from Medtronic, have developed a groundbreaking process for multi-material 3D printing of lifelike models of the heart's aortic valve and the ...

Wearing blue rubber gloves, Molly Dobrow reached into a metal vat of diluted sodium hydroxide and pulled out two dripping-wet models of human organs: a heart and a set of lungs. Made of Elastico, a ...

NIBIB-funded engineers at the University of Buffalo have fine-tuned the use of stereolithography for 3D printing of organ models that contain live cells. The new technique is capable of printing the ...

Lund University researchers have designed a new bioink which allows small human-sized airways to be 3D-bioprinted with the help of patient cells. The 3D-printed constructs are biocompatible and ...

Researchers have unveiled a new 3D‑printable material that can be stretched, sutured, and implanted, edging artificial organs closer to routine clinical use. By combining the mechanical resilience of ...

Reliable disease models are crucial to improve quality of healthcare. They enable better understanding of disease mechanisms, developing new therapeutic interventions and personalising treatment.

3D printing technology may one day enable medics to produce artificial organs for many patients in need ‘on-demand’. Technology is a long way from making this a reality; however, there have been a ...

Engineers at the University of Pittsburgh are working to develop 3D-printed organic tissue models that mimic the behavior of living organs. Online cover of Science Advances, April issue. A ...
