Feb 04, 2021 In this week’s issue of “From Academia”, we share three recent publications focusing on using 3D printing in orthopedics, but from different angles. The first article focuses on adding drug delivery functionality to 3D printed biodegradable implants by adding PCL coating. The second article focuses on using a new biocompatible conductive material magnesium phosphate ceramics modified with Sr2+ ions (MgPSr) and a medical-grade polycaprolactone (PCL) polymer phase to 3D printing implants for better bone regeneration. The last article focuses on designing a 3D printing focused digital workflow to simulate and design better fixation devices for fractures.
“From Academia” features recent, relevant, close to commercialization academic publications. Subjects include but not limited to healthcare 3D printing, 3D bioprinting, and related emerging technologies.
