Patient-Specific 3D Printed Soft Models for Liver Surgical Planning and Hands-On Training

Conclusions: It is demonstrated that it is possible to manufacture accurate and cost-effective 3D-printed soft surgical planning simulators for treating liver cancer. The 3D models allowed for proper pre-surgical planning and simulation training in the three cases reported, making it a valuable aid for surgeons.PMID:37102951 | DOI:10.3390/gels9040339
