3D Printing Application in Medicine and Surgery
Enterprises from various sectors these days use
3D printing technologies regularly to obtain
solid three-dimensional items from
three-dimensional digital models. The 3D printers
produce a variety of objects and items by
depositing thin layers of filament in succession.
Based on the nature and requirements of a
project, every user has the option to choose from
a wide variety of 3D printers and 3D printer
filaments.

Like other industries, the healthcare industry
leverage 3D printing technologies to provide
patients with a completely new form of treatment
and care. Surgeons these days use 3D printers
while planning surgeries, while the manufacturers
leverage 3D printing while planning and producing
surgical equipment.
The 3D printing application in medicine and
surgery is multiple as well as diverse. The
surgeons have been creating new use cases
regularly by using 3D printing technologies in
innovative ways. They even explore ways to
leverage the benefits of additive manufacturing
technology to improve surgeries and medical care.
We can understand the 3D printing application in
medicine and surgery based on some innovative use
cases.

Use Cases That Depict 3D Printing Application in
Medicine and Surgery
Preoperative Consultation
Surgical Planning
Before performing complex surgery, surgeons need
to explain important aspects of the surgery to
patients in a simpler and clearer way. The
imaging data often requires the surgeon to put in
extra time and effort to explain complex surgical
procedures to patients. 3D printing helps
surgeons to simplify preoperative consultation by
producing patient education models based on 3D
imaging data. The surgeons can further use the
3D-printed models to form strategies and choose
techniques.
Many surgeons these days use 3D printers to
produce models of organs physically from digital
files. They use these 3D-printed organs to plan
complex surgeries by identifying and addressing
key challenges. At the same time, the 3D-printed
organs help surgeons to teach medical students
and residents how to plan and perform surgeries
successfully. Some surgeons these days use
sophisticated 3D printers to replicate organs
during surgical planning in an affordable and
cost-efficient way.

As commonly used medical devices, implants
replace, support, or enhance a persons
mission/damaged biological structure. But a
persons biological structure can be replaced
accurately and seamlessly only when the implant
is personalized fully. One of the common
applications of 3D printing in medicine and
surgery is the creation of personalized implants.
Many companies already use 3D printing
technologies to create personalized implants for
individual patients and complex cases.
Personalized and Precision Medicine
In addition to personalizing treatment and care,
3D printing technologies will soon facilitate
precision medicine delivery. Many hospitals
already use 3D printers to prepare personalized
doses and delivery systems based on a patients
age, lifestyle, body size, and sex. Precision
medicine can be produced by a physician, nurse,
or pharmacist who knows how to use a 3D printer.
In addition to delivering highly personalized
medicine to every patient, 3D printing will help
hospitals to save both funds and resources.

Many healthcare companies these days leverage
professional 3D printing servicesto transform bio
printing. They adopt three-dimensional bio
printing to produce bone, living cells, and
tissues using biomaterials as inks. The
physicians and surgeons can leverage bio printing
to produce personalized tissues and cells for
individual patients. The personalized tissues and
cells enable physicians to deliver personalized
and targeted treatment to every patient.
Innovative Medical Devices and Instruments
3D printing technologies enable engineers and
manufacturers to experiment with many ideas
without requiring extra resources or escalating
costs. Many manufacturers these days combine 3D
printers and 3D printing filaments to produce
innovative medical devices and surgical
instruments. They can further evaluate the pros
and cons of every 3D-printed prototype before
starting mass production. Also, 3D printing
technologies enable manufacturers to produce
innovative devices in low-volume and on-demand.
Many hospitals and clinics have already started
transforming and modernizing their operating
rooms by integrating 3D printing technologies
with next-generation technologies like artificial
intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR), and
virtual reality (VR). The 5G technology will soon
enable surgeons to perform remote surgeries. That
is why 3D printing will remain one of the key
technologies that will shape the future of
surgery by setting up futuristic operating rooms.
