Professor Anamika Prasad from Florida International University developed 3D-printed implants in the form of scaffold ...

The new implant, she adds, could be sterilised and ... so it can be applied to a really large or small bone defect,” explains Zreiqat. Trials to test the scaffolds on large-scale bone injuries ...

In experiments using a tibial defect animal model, the team found that bone-to-implant integration was accelerated from 28 days to just 14 days, effectively doubling the speed. This marks the ...

Scientists from Tomsk Polytechnic University in collaboration with colleagues have engineered 3D-printed biodegradable scaffolds with shape memory effect based on poly(lactic acid) (PLA) doped with ...

We exploit this speed to print at very small (~micron) scale and very soft (KPa to MPa) polymers that are used in regenerative medicine. We are currently printing implants for defects of knee ...

One of the significant advancements in this field is the use of three-dimensional (3D) printed titanium implants for addressing severe acetabular bone defects. A study involving 35 patients ...

At the University of Queensland, a clinical team used 3D printed scaffolds to help repair a patient's jawbone in a ...
