Beijing University of Chemical Technology: 3D Printed HA/PCL Tissue Engineering Scaffolds
3D printed bone scaffolds used for tissue engineering purposes need to have a good amount of mechanical strength, since the scaffold needs to be able to provide support for the…
3D Printing with Porous Ti6Al4V for Improved Dental Implants
As implants continue to be a challenge for dental patients, researchers from Taiwan are experimenting with better ways to accommodate bone defects after failed implants must be removed. Results of…
Singapore: 3D Bioprinting with Magnesium Alloys to Create Bone Scaffolds
Strides in the medical field today via 3D printing have been staggering, and especially in bioprinting, with many different technologies and materials being created. Now, researchers in Singapore are exploring…
Australian Researchers Using Bioengineering and 3D Printing to Design Better Replacement Bone Ligament Constructs
The most common type of wrist ligament injury occurs with the Scapholunate Interosseous Ligament (SLIL). Injuries to this particular ligament can lead to the dislocation of the lunate and scaphoid carpal bones…
3D Printing News Briefs: March 23, 2018
We’re starting off with some major medical news in today’s 3D Printing News Briefs – Materialise is the first company in the world to receive FDA clearance for 3D printed…
Making Better 3D Printed Bone Scaffolds at Low Temperatures with Robocasting Technique
Scaffolds are an important part of bioprinting, as they provide necessary structure to printed cells while they grow and develop. 3D printed bone scaffolds can help with tissue regrowth, as…
Spinal Orthopedics: PhD Student at Stevens Institute of Technology Creates 3D Printed Scaffolds at 8 Cents Each
There are so many things we can 3D print today, from entire homes and cars to integral parts being created today in nearly every industry, from aerospace to apparel. The…
Understanding Bone Cancer Tumors with 3D Printed Scaffolds and Flow Perfusion
One year ago, we heard about the work of researchers with Rice University, who used an OpenSLS 3D printer to develop 3D printed lattices for bone tissue engineering. The researchers began…
Researchers Create 3D Printed Hyperelastic Bone With Much Greater Potential for Use in Humans
Although it may seem most have their sights set on 3D printing organs for transplant when it comes to bioprinting, other researchers are concerned with more immediate issues that indeed…
