Full Description

Anatomical models (i.e.: biomodels) of individual patient bone structure have been produced using traditional rapid prototyping techniques for almost ten years now. SLA, FDM and SLS have all played a role in this industry, although SLA eventually took over the anatomical modeling market as the leader worldwide. The field has seen growth in the use of these models and expansion of their applications. Thought now has to be given to the use of the rapid prototyping techniques that best serve these applications. Machine selection, materials selection and accuracy of each will be crucial points leading to future growth of this field.
