Building 3D printed parts with artificial intelligence (AI) can optimize the design process by generating complex geometries that are lightweight yet strong. This can be difficult to achieve manually.

Using X-ray beams and machine learning for detecting structural defects, such as pore formation, can help prevent failure of metal 3D-printed parts. Systematic computer-based material design uses ...

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 ...

How can a 3D printer help surgeons perform a delicate procedure on a patient they have never met before, a patient who has not even been born yet? At Orlando Health Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women & ...

Personalised 3D printed models created from cardiac imaging data, mainly from cardiac CT images have been increasingly used in cardiovascular disease, primarily in the preoperative planning and ...

3D printing techniques are transforming many areas of manufacturing. One such technique, laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), is particularly attractive because it can be used to make complex metal parts ...

The heart of a newborn child can weigh as little as 20 grams and fits on a human palm. Performing a procedure on such a small heart brings a lot of difficulties. There is never a dull moment in 3D ...
