Traditionally, doctors can obtain CT two-dimensional image information through CT scans. However, for the understanding of CT two-dimensional images, doctors need to abstract into 3D images in their minds with experience to further diagnose and treat liver tumors and other medical diseases. This experience is often Not reliable enough, deviations may occur.
3D printing technology can realize that the data provided by medical institutions can be processed by professional doctors. The image data obtained by the provided X-ray CT machine and MRI MRI scan can be converted into CAD data required by the input 3D printer for 3D printing model. The 3D printing model not only has the same three-dimensional visual function and individualized characteristics as the digital three-dimensional model, but also has the function of manually touching and marking important anatomical structures, which provides a new method for medical teaching, clinical and scientific research.
3D printing technology will have a wider range of medical applications in the construction of medical models, artificial bones, the manufacture of biological organs, teeth, and plastic surgery.
