Materialise Expands 3D Printing Technology for Orthopedic Solutions
“Innovations from Materialise do far more than just inspire. Put into action, they transform patients’ lives—as well as the jobs of surgeons who are responsible for making it all happen, ultimately. The world has been watching their progress via 3D printing over the last few years, with countless announcements regarding enhancements, partnerships, and refinements to their series of 3D printed surgical guides—from pediatric ulna and radius osteotomy guides to those created for complex wrist surgeries in adults.
Now, the Belgium-headquartered company is also creating 3D printed orthopedic solutions for adult patients with metacarpal/phalange and clavicle bone deformities. Once again, the benefit of having patient-specific models and surgical guides will propel medical teams even further for success in complicated cases. These new guides are just evidence of one more step taken by Materialise engineers to further progress not just in the medical field, but specifically that of bone deformity corrections…”
