3D printer ‘bone filament’ feels real helps surgeons train for operations

A surgeon recently demonstrated using specialized “bone-simulating” filament to create realistic 3D-printed anatomical models for surgical practice, potentially revolutionizing pre-operative preparation. A surgeon shares experience using specialized 3D printing material that mimics human bone properties for pre-surgical practice and training. The demonstration, shared on Reddit by user u/PectusSurgeon, shows a test rib printed using SimuBone […]
