How else to use medical models?
< 1 min reading time

My group is making realistic, full-sized, medical models that provide a high-fidelity surgical experience.

Used for medical schools’ education and training, these durable, soft, silicone models can mimic nearly any organ or system (including normal, diseased, or patient specific) with tumors, bleed when incised, be scoped, sutured, etc.

I can’t help but think there may be potential for use or interactivity with some medical device items – but the students don’t know to ask, and both this group and I have little experience with what is available and where there may be opportunity to augment student learning.

Any ideas? Thanks so much! Barbara Duffy, [email protected]

P.S. We need more awesome groups like this!

Here are some medical students “operating” on a thorax model made by a 3D printer using MRI and CT scan metrics and a variety of silicone material to make it all very life like. There are also models of individual human organs and systems (urology for example). Would this help with designing implants, surgical tools, research experiments, robotic rehearsal, or new procedures?
