Over the past decade, 3D printing has gone from being a futuristic idea to a revolutionary tool. In medicine, its ability to produce custom-made, complex structures is changing the way doctors treat ...

CompagOS has produced biologically reproducible Bon3OID™ bone models using 3D bioprinting. Find out more in the interview!

Medical researchers have developed a way to use 3D printers to help create new bone mass. Using "bone-bridges", surgeons can implant a printed piece into a patient, which allows new bone to grow ...

During a complicated bone surgery, every second matters. The longer a wound is open, the more likely it is to become infected and injured. Now picture this: Surgeons can now print a new piece of bone ...

The cranial bone in the human body performs very important functions, such as protecting the brain and enabling the passage of the cranial nerves that are essential to physiological functioning.

Nivalon Medical Technologies Inc. has successfully produced the world's first fully patient-specific, motion-preserving spinal implant built entirely without metal, using AI-driven design and advanced ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Millions suffer from bone defects worldwide, caused by disease, injury or age-related conditions. Traditional treatment options include bone grafting, where bone tissue is ...

University of Texas at Dallas mechanical engineers have designed a 3D-printed femur that could help doctors prepare for surgeries to repair bones and develop treatments for bone tumors. The engineers, ...

The CRAFT method uses widely available materials and inexpensive commercial 3D printers.

Researchers from UNSW Canberra have developed a new 3D-printed implant that could change how fractures and bone injuries are treated.

A 3D printable bio-active glass could be used to repair bone damage and help them grow back, a study suggests. The newly developed bio-glass—made with “green” and “cost-efficient” methods—was found to ...
