Explore a world of endless possibilities with ultrarealistic 3D printed anatomical representations
The J5 Digital Anatomy 3D Printer’s software gives you the power to create
clinically validated preset anatomy options that utilize 3D printing materials.
These behave with biomechanical accuracy that mimics human tissue and bone
like never before.
Structural Heart

Experience the physiological response of native cardiac
tissue. Create durable heart models that maintaincompliance, as well as replicate reality, making theminvaluable learning and development tools.
See the remarkably accurate details of the human heart,as the myocardium, the vasculature of the heart, valve
leaflets, cords, and annulus – all in a 3D printedrepresentation.
Feel realistic feedback while suturing, cutting, insertingand deploying devices.
A medical device company study compared thebiomechanical properties of porcine tissue to 3D printed
myocardium. It found that models printed on the Digital
Anatomy Printer mimicked real tissue better than any
other material.1

Blood Vessels

Experience the arterial elasticity caused by changes inblood pressure and disease.
See how complex vasculature systems respond undersimulated surgical procedures.
Feel realistic vessel responses while inserting anddeploying guidewires and catheters, valves, grafts, andclosure devices. Simulate actual blood flow with an active
flow loop. Practice navigating tortuous anatomy withpatient-specific models. Replicate calcifications and view
them under fluoroscopy.
A Jacobs Institute study compared 3D printed aortic,
carotid, and coronary artery models to native vessel
behavior found that the Digital Anatomy Printer createsthe most accurate arterial models available.2

Feel realistic feedback while tapping, reaming, sawing,
inserting screws and attaching plates.
Biomechanical testing confirmed that the driving torqueand pullout force of screw fixation in 3D printed bonemodels have similar haptic responses to human bone.3
Mechanical tests confirm spine models accurately
simulate the natural axes of movement of the humanspine as the following forces are applied: disccompression, extension, flexion, lateral bending, and axial
tension.4

RadiopaqueRadio realistic models with full contrast options. Print
models that not only look like real anatomy with a similar
biomechanical behavior, but they also have the same
results under a CT scan.

Control the radiopacity properties of each printed model.
Choose the material mixture to get the desired radiopacity
level (HU value) and print with repeatable and accurate
results.

Innovative materials make it possible
Unlock unique material combinations that create realistic models that vary in softness, flexibility, and density, mimicking
native tissue behavior. The unique voxel-based engine of the J5 Digital Anatomy 3D Printer will automatically generate
your model’s detailed anatomical structures giving it the look and feel of the real thing.
The J5 Digital Anatomy 3D Printer comes pre-programmed with a series of anatomical applications, developed inpartnership with device manufacturers, world-class research institutions, hospitals and medical personnel.
Utilizing the Digital Anatomy Printer unique and exclusive materials, enables the creation of over 300 unique digitalmaterials to create complex, multi-texture structures.
• GelMatrix™ — Unique GelMatrix material and GelSupport™ depositing patterns allow you to print small, complex
vascular structures and easily remove internal support material. GelMatrix is also used for mimicking soft tissues
such as liver and subcutaneous fat.
• TissueMatrix™ — Sophisticated soft material configurations allow for models that feel and behave like native organ
tissue when force is applied. This is ideal for replicating the look and feel of heart tissue.
• BoneMatrix™ — Complex material depositing patterns mimic bone structures with various densities to demonstratedifferent conditions and pathologies. This material is useful when creating orthopedic models that can be drilled anddissected, with biomechanical behavior like human bone.
• RadioMatrix™ — Radiopaque 3D printing material gives you the power to create medical models that exhibit realisticfeatures under X-ray and CT.
A full range of PolyJet materials are also available for use on the J5 Digital Anatomy 3D Printer to help you achieve alevel of visualization never seen before including Vero™ Family Vivid multicolor materials, DraftWhite™ rigid whitematerial, Elastico™ rubber-like material, and Biocompatible Materials with ISO certifications for biocompatibility andsterilization.

Demonstration

Surgeon training and device testing

Using a combination of rigid Vero and Elastico materials,
we created a visual hand model with fine details, colors,
varying texture gradients, transparencies, and durometers
to help visualize the hand’s vessels, bones, nerves,mussels, and skin.

Using ultra-soft TissueMatrix, the subcutaneous fat presetin GrabCAD software, and BoneMatrix material for rigid
internal bone structures, we created a functional handmodel with the same biomechanical behaviors as humananatomy. Realistic haptic feedback allows cutting,suturing, drilling and device insertion just as you would
into tissue, fat, or bone.

RadioMatrix adds radio-realism to the desired anatomy,
creating radiopaque tissues that are visible under CT orfluoroscopy.
