The 3-Dimensional Printing Program at the Biomedical Engineering Department at Niagara Health

The Biomedical Engineering Department at Niagara Health has recently launched a 3-dimensional printing program to better support the maintenance and repair of medical devices. Originally, the program was conceived to extend the life of equipment that is no longer supported by the manufacturers. The program is gradually expanding to cover clinical and digital imaging applications mostly geared toward the education of residents and patients. Recently, with impetus from the Information and Communication Department, a partnership has been set up with Brock University, Niagara College, and the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus. This is gradually evolving to become a regional endeavor.
