Researchers 3D Print Tissue That Mimics Human Bile Duct
“A bile duct plays a crucial role in the body, carrying bile from the liver to the intestine to facilitate digestion. Cancer of the bile duct has an alarmingly low survival rate, and treatment requires that the disease be caught early enough for the affected part of the bile duct to be removed. But there’s some good news for those suffering from conditions of the bile duct, as researchers at https://www.northwestern.edu/ have 3D printed a mini-tissue that mimics it…”
