“…3 Examples of a 3D reconstruction of a left outer ear from a 3T MRI scan (of author TW) using Slicer 3D software [47]. Left side: posterior-anterior view; center: anterior-posterior view; right side: side-view been evaluated for facial scans, both for ears and nose [38]. Accuracy and user friendliness were found to be fulfilling with respect to the requirements of further data processing.…”

Current 3D scanning and printing technologies offer not only state-of-the-art developments in the field of medical imaging and bio-engineering, but also cost and time effective solutions for surgical reconstruction procedures. Besides tissue engineering, where living cells are used, bio-compatible polymers or synthetic resin can be applied. The combination of 3D handheld scanning devices or volumetric imaging, (open-source) image processing packages, and 3D printers form a complete workflow chain that is capable of effective rapid prototyping of outer ear replicas. This paper reviews current possibilities and latest use cases for 3D-scanning, data processing and printing of outer ear replicas with a focus on low-cost solutions for rehabilitation engineering.
