Surgical Training with 3D Printed Heart Models at Sickkids Hospital

The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids)

The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids)

The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto (SickKids) has been using Stratasys Polyjet 3D printing technology to produce 3D printed medical models that look, feel and function like human tissue. This has greatly enhanced their surgical training process for simulated pediatric cardiac procedures and allowed them to mimic complex pathology.

3D-Bioplotter®

3D-Bioplotter®

Desktop Health® 3D Bioplotter is a powerful tool that combines precision engineering, biomaterials, and living cells to create functional and biocompatible 3D tissue structures. It is an innovative system for advancing tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and pharmaceutical research. 3D-Bioplotter is a highly sophisticated extrusion-based printer that processes liquids, melts, pastes, gels, or other materials, including cells, through a needle tip on a Swissmade, 3-axis gantry system. Objects can be fabricated on the sturdy, vibration-free platform – more than 90 kg or about 200 lbs –with high precision and repeatability.
Models for all levels of functionality are available: Manufacturer, Developer and Starter Series.
