Release date: 2017-11-01 Recently, the Australian Government, Melbourne RMIT University, University of Technology Sydney (UTS), St. Vincent Hospital and medical technology company Stryker jointly established a five-year "immediate implant" project. Through the program, they will develop 3D printed custom implants for people who are undergoing tumor resection and bone cancer treatment. The 3D printed implant project has accumulated A$12.1 million ($9.3 million) in funding and has been awarded to the medical technology company Stryker and the Australian Innovation Manufacturing Collaborative Research Center (IMCRC, part of the Australian Government Department of Industry, Innovation and Science) support. According to reports, the joint team will use additive manufacturing technology to produce custom implants that can be fabricated on-site during the patient's bone tumor resection to maximize implant customization. For the goal of the “Instant Implants†project, Professor Peter Choong, a researcher at St. Vincent Hospital, described: “By combining the precision of specialized imaging techniques, 3D printing and robot-assisted surgery, our goal is to provide personalized in a timely manner. The implant allows the surgeon to remove the cancer and repair the patient's bones in one operation. This will provide patients and surgeons with more surgical options and increase the potential for limb salvage surgery." In addition to improving patient care, the program will help train medical engineers in additive manufacturing technology to make the technology easier to use and more usable in the country. Stryker, a Michigan-based medical technology company, has recently made significant progress in medical 3D printing. For example, this summer, the company gained support from GE Additive through a partnership to develop its own medical 3D printing capabilities. The company's various 3D printed implants are also FDA approved. (Compiled from 3ders.org) Source: Tiangongshe
