“…The 3D models were also well‐received among patients and the patients gave a mean satisfaction score of 9.4/10 on a visual scale for the counseling session. Similar positive attitudes toward 3D printed models have been documented in non‐oncological patients that were planned for ankle fracture reduction and for splenectomy …”

“…One major limitation in using 3D models is its high monetary cost. While prices of models may vary based on the complexity of the structure and materials used, most models cost at least 150 US dollars to produce . Another limitation is the time required to produce the model.…”

“…Made to order metal 3D printed devices (Hsu and Ellington 2015), 3D printed models for surgical planning (Pietrabissa et al 2015; Scawn et al 2015), and 3D printed tools (Burleson et al 2015) highlight some of the current and future biomedical applications of conventional 3D printing technologies. Bioprinting techniques have also been applied to bone tissue engineering.…”

Bioprinting is a 3D fabrication technology used to precisely dispense cell-laden biomaterials for the construction of complex 3D functional living tissues or artificial organs. While still in its early stages, bioprinting strategies have demonstrated their potential use in regenerative medicine to generate a variety of transplantable tissues, including skin, cartilage, and bone. However, current bioprinting approaches still have technical challenges in terms of high-resolution cell deposition, controlled cell distributions, vascularization, and innervation within complex 3D tissues. While no one-size-fits-all approach to bioprinting has emerged, it remains an on-demand, versatile fabrication technique that may address the growing organ shortage as well as provide a high-throughput method for cell patterning at the micrometer scale for broad biomedical engineering applications. In this review, we introduce the basic principles, materials, integration strategies and applications of bioprinting. We also discuss the recent developments, current challenges and future prospects of 3D bioprinting for engineering complex tissues. Combined with recent advances in human pluripotent stem cell technologies, 3D-bioprinted tissue models could serve as an enabling platform for high-throughput predictive drug screening and more effective regenerative therapies.

“…Touch seems to recalibrate the visual perception so that it is better able to infer depth from the retinal projection. 50 The sensory information exploited by the haptic system for the recognition of real objects is made by kinaesthetic and cutaneous inputs. While kinaesthetic inputs refer to the perception of the spatial configuration of the hand and fingers, the cutaneous inputs deal with the perception of the contact conditions between the human hand and the real object.…”

Advances in image processing have led to the clinical use of 3D printing technology, giving the surgeon a realistic physical model of the anatomy upon which he or she will operate.Relying on CT images, the surgeon creates a virtual 3D model of the target anatomy from a series of bi-dimensional images, translating the information contained in CT images into a more usable format.3D printed models can play a central role in surgical planning and in the training of novice surgeons, as well as reducing the rate of re-operation.Cite this article: Auricchio F, Marconi S. 3D printing: clinical applications in orthopaedics and traumatology.
