Commentary: Meta-Analysis of 3D Printing Applications in Traumatic Fractures

Commentary: Accessing 3D Printed Vascular Phantoms for Procedural Simulation

“…Initially, the use of 3D printing was isolated to industrial purposes. However, 3D printing has created an indelible impact in healthcare in the form of anatomical models for medical training, implantable prothesis, and surgical preparation through image guidance in an array of surgical subspecialties including vascular, orthopedic, and urological surgeries (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). Moreover, the use of patient-specific surgical models has led to the rise in use of these additive manufacturing modalities for improving surgical planning since its initial investigation in the 1990s.…”
