The Method of Artificial Organs Fabrication Based on Reverse Engineering in Medicine

摘要

The paper presents the concept and implementation of innovative methods of producing artificial organs and prosthesis based on 3D printing technology. These organs possess physical and mechanical properties similar to human organs and bodies part. As a result, using such organs, it is possible to conduct training and workshops, especially in the field of urological surgery, under the conditions close to real operations. Due to the fabrication of 3D models can also lead so-called pre-operations in order to better prepare surgeons to carry out complex operations and post-operation e.g. observers proper operation. The proposed method enables the production of artificial human organs whose consistency, plastic properties, hardness, elasticity are close to the real organ of specific patient, because it can be made on the basis of the data from MRI and CT. The process of preparing 3D geometry is prepared in applications in the field of CAD, but also through advanced applications designed for editing in vector geometry environment.
