About this Research Topic
By combining skills of engineering and medicine with these developments we can take an advanced leap example developing and studying new personalized medical treatments and devices with novel material combinations. This development requires a new kind of thinking and creativity to be successful.
This Research Topic focuses on recent advances in digital design and manufacturing in medical applications. Research articles, reviews, and mini-reviews on the following topics are welcome:
• Additive manufacturing, digital manufacturing, and 3D printing in medical applications such as:
• Medical models,
• Implants, tools, instruments and parts for medical devices,
• Medical aids, supportive guides, splints, and prostheses
• 3D modeling and 3D models in medicine,
• 3D Medical imaging
