Presented at
Notacon 10 (2013),
April 20, 2013, 4 p.m.
(60 minutes).
3D printing technology can transform how we discuss, diagnose, learn and explain complex medical and surgical problems. Going from bot-to-bedside with printed models can give both patients, families, and physicians a tangible link to an injury, illness, or procedure.
Dr. KK Pandya will discuss the fundamentals of the diagnostic medical imaging, his research in building customized medical models for patients, and demonstrate Free & Open Source tools for taking CT and MRI data to your 3D printer.
Bring your own medical imaging (CDs from MRI & CT scans) to the breakout session, and KK will assist you in exporting these to 3D modeling software.
