Summary
One of the most pressing problems in modern medicine is the lack of available organ donors for transplant procedures. Traditional procedures always carry the risk of difficulties, additional injuries, and a scarcity of donors. These problems may be amenable to resolution using three-dimensional (3D)-printing technology, which might be used to print out replacement tissues and organs as well as to print out individualized tissue engineering scaffolds, repair tissue abnormalities in situ with cells, and so on. Besides a perfect anatomical match with the patient's injured tissue, 3D-printed organs and implants can also feature designed material microstructures and cell groupings that spur cell proliferation and differentiation. Hence, the needed tissue restoration can be accomplished with the help of these implants, and the issue of a lack of donors may one day be resolved. This chapter discusses various kinds of biomedical materials, summarizes pertinent research and recent breakthroughs on four levels, and examines current concerns and research challenges associated with 3D-printing materials and in vitro extracellular matrix construction for medicinal use.
