Summary
Customizable, biocompatible, and sterile components are in high demand in the healthcare industry. When it comes to healthcare, 3D printing is a game-changer that opens up vast new possibilities for study and innovation. A straightforward 3D printing service provides patients with inexpensive, customized prostheses, implants, and devices; aids surgeons in performing more precise procedures with individualized tools and models; and helps medical device makers create cutting-edge, time-saving products. The use of 3D-printed tissue components has the potential to simplify drug development and help overcome several obstacles. Possible future benefits include making drugs more affordable for all people and expanding their availability. The literature on the benefits of using 3D-printed anatomic models in education and training is expanding rapidly. This chapter, however, focuses on recent advances in medical science using 3D printing.
