Surgeons will love these 3D printing organs, and they can all be fake!
Release date: 2015-03-12 Imagine the surgeon opening an incision in the lungs where the liquid oozes out of the surface. But doctors are not worried about making mistakes because they use a simulation model printed by a 3D printer. This ultra-realistic lung is just part of the simulated organ that the Japanese company Fasotec uses to print on a 3D printer. These artificial organs are almost identical to real human organs. They are also wet and soft, with tumors and blood vessels. They help the surgeons practice their hands. Fasotec founder Tomohiro Kinoshita said: "With these simulation models, doctors can feel the softness of the organs and see them bleed. We hope to use it to improve the doctor's surgical skills." From guns to cars to make-up and crafts, 3D printing is expected to change our daily lives in the coming decades. Fasotec's so-called Biotexture Wet Model will be available in Japan as early as next month, mainly for surgical training and medical device testing. This model is printed on a 3D printer after scanning the real organs. After the model is printed, the gel-type synthetic resin is injected to give a wet, viable feeling. Each model mimics the structure and weight of a real organ, so the feedback to the scalpel is almost the same as a real organ. Maki Sugimoto, a doctor who tried the model, said: "This organ model is simply too realistic." If you don't say this is a model, it is easy to mistake it for a real organ. Sugimoto said: "The feeling of touch is very similar to that of a real organ. Not to mention that a young doctor, even an experienced doctor, can get better surgical results if he can use the model to exercise in advance." Toshiaki Morikawa, a doctor at Jikei University Hospital in Tokyo, said: "Although the current model is a bit simple, some details have not yet been fully presented, but it is already excellent, accurate, and close to real organs in terms of quality. †Morikawa believes that 3D printing technology can bring endless opportunities to the medical field, including the ability to print truly portable organs in the future. Morikawa said: "In view of the future development of life sciences, I believe that 3D printing technology should be further strengthened and applied to the field of biology. This is an urgent and significant thing." Last October, Fasotec began pre-selling bladder and urethral tube models for 15,000 yen (about $127). According to Kinoshita, founder of Fasotec, the company also plans to sell the model on the international market and has received advice from other Asian countries.
