MANUFACTURING INSIGHTS: MEDICAL APPLICATIONS OF RAPID PROTOTYPING
Rapid technology and 3D data capture are inspiring a new world of medical innovations from orthopedic implants to biomaterials used in tissue engineering. Medical Applications of Rapid Prototyping takes you inside the medical industry to examine how Rapid is being used to reconstruct anatomy, build parts, and rebuild lives.

First we take you inside Biomet in Warsaw, Indiana where they demonstrate how CT and MRI scans are converted into rapid prototyped models for the purpose of creating custom implants that are specifically matched to the patients' own anatomical data.

Next, Direct Dimensions in Baltimore, Maryland shows us how 3D scanning technology and rapid prototyping are used to produce aesthetic prosthetics. You'll also meet the surgeons, medical illustrators and modelers from Johns Hopkins University who give these prosthetics their realistic look.

Our program closes with a visit to the Medical University of South Carolina, where they're using additive fabrication with living cells and advanced biomaterials to produce pioneering innovations in tissue engineering.

Written by noted medical device designer Ted Kucklick, Medical Applications of Rapid Prototyping is the perfect program for any engineer, rapid prototyping provider, or medical practitioner that is looking for an exclusive insider's look at the life enhancing applications of this technology.
