Stratasys forms a Medical Solutions Group

December 1, 2015 By Nic Abraham

The use of 3D printing in medical applications shows no signs of stopping. 3D printing is being used to prototype and manufacture surgical models and medical devices, among other applications. A number of 3D printing vendors are making moves to provide for the growing demand. Stratasys Ltd., for example, has introduced the Stratasys Medical Solutions Group to advance the use of 3D printing and additive manufacturing to improve patient care, healthcare procedures, products and outcomes.

3D printing in patient care addresses a number of needs:
–improving surgical success and reducing surgical time through 3D printed models created prior to operations.
–improving surgical pre-planning processes through the use of 3D printed models.
–improving overall health care facility preparedness by using 3D printed anatomical models customized for training.
–improving patient outcome through better fit, form, function and affordability with 3D printed personalized prosthetics, bionics and orthotics.

3D printing for medical devices addresses the following:

3D printed anatomical models used for validation and verification improves preclinical device testing and evaluation.

3D printing speeds the development of end-user medical devices, often for significant cost savings.
