Critical bone defects resulting from trauma, tumor resection, or congenital conditions present significant challenges in ...

Traditionally, this research has heavily relied on animal testing, but researchers at the Henry Royce Institute at The University of Manchester, are revolutionising this field by using 3D printing ...

University of Texas at Dallas mechanical engineers have designed a 3D-printed femur that could help doctors prepare for ...

Now, a UK-based scientist is attempting to modernize that approach by 3D-printing a new bone grafting material inspired by coral found in the ocean. Swansea University researcher Zhidao Xia has ...

Bone is a highly vascularized tissue, and the link between angiogenesis -blood vessel formation- and bone healing has long ...

By using advanced 3D-printing technology, the team have developed a biomimetic material that mimics the porous structure and chemical composition of coral-converted bone graft substitute ...
