Abstract:This study aims to present a workflow concerning the retrieval of a human heart’s 3D model and its fabrication with heart-like materials producing a 3D printed replica. In detail, the 3D model of the examined heart was obtained by applying a 3D reconstruction methodology utilizing DICOM data derived from CT-scans. For the 3D printed heart-like material, the Material Jetting AM technique was employed due to its ability to fabricate 3D printed composite parts with variable properties. Several compositions for th… Show more
