3D Printed Bones...
3D printing is an industry promising
everything from cheap house building
through to affordable rugged armour,
but one of the most interesting uses of
the technology is the building of 3D
printed bones.
The company Ossiform specialises in
medical 3D printing, creating patient-
specific replacements of different bones
from tricalcium phosphate – a material
with similar properties to human bones.
Using these 3D printed bones is
surprisingly easy. A hospital can perform
an MRI which is then sent to Ossiform
who create a 3D model of the patient-
specific implant that is needed. The
surgeon accepts the design and then
once it is printed, it can be used in
surgery.
What is special about these 3D printed
bones is that because of the use of
tricalcium phosphate, the body will
remodel the implants into vascularised
bone. That means they will enable the
full restoration of function that the bone
it is replacing had. To achieve the best
integration possible, the implants are of
a porous structure and feature large
pores and canals for cells to attach to
and reform bone.
