“In the recently published ‘Accurate Congenital Heart Disease Model Generation for 3D Printing,’ researchers explore 3D printing for diagnosis, treatment, and planning in congenital heart disease (CHD) patients. CHD usually presents itself at birth and can be difficult to analyze, even with 3D medical images—and despite many different studies by scientists around the world. The researchers note that 3D printing has been ‘widely adopted’ in clinical settings lately, offering for improvements in the following:

  • Clinical decision making
  • Interventional planning
  • Communication between physicians and patients
  • Improving medical education…
