3D Printed Vascular Model Helps Surgeons Cure Brain Aneurysm
By Robolab Technologies In 3D printersThe Jacobs Institute (JI), working alongside physicians at Kaleida Health’s Gates Vascular Institute and biomedical engineers at the University at Buffalo, teamed up with Stratasys to design a revolutionary new approach to repair the complex brain aneurysm for a lucky mother-of-three.
The life-like 3D printed vascular replica significantly reduced risks associated with this complex surgery and corrected a near-fatal condition.
This stirring video illustrates the life-saving power of 3D printed surgical guides as surgeons can now practice and evaluate complicated procedures on precise replicas of patient anatomies.
