November 3: Point-of-Care 3D Printing Panel

Finally, also at 11 am EST on the 3rd, 3DHEALS wraps the week up with a virtual panel on “Point of Care 3D Printing.” At the end of 2021, the FDA published a discussion paper on the subject of POC 3D printing, and invited the public to submit comments in order to create more clarifying regulatory guidance. So for this panel, 3DHEALS invited several experts with both industrial and clinical experiences in POC 3D printing to discuss the exciting topic.

“Point of care 3D printing is becoming one of the biggest attractions in adopting 3D printing in healthcare systems because it demonstrates the ability to decentralize manufacturing personalized medical devices. The medical devices can range from anatomical modeling, and implants, to surgical guides based on the latest updates from all over the world. However, for companies interested in expanding markets either locally or regionally, understanding the complex relationships among different players and regulations are critical.”
