Researchers at UNSW Canberra are exploring whether 3D printing can help close that gap. Their work focuses on biodegradable ...

The cranial bone in the human body performs very important functions, such as protecting the brain and enabling the passage of the cranial nerves that are essential to physiological functioning.

UNSW develops new 3D printed bone implant - bringing personalized, biodegradable implants one step closer to reality.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Millions suffer from bone defects worldwide, caused by disease, injury or age-related conditions. Traditional treatment options include bone grafting, where bone tissue is ...

During a complicated bone surgery, every second matters. The longer a wound is open, the more likely it is to become infected and injured. Now picture this: Surgeons can now print a new piece of bone ...

Bone defect is a serious problem for people with diabetes after fractures, but a new technique involving 3D bioprinting of a 'scaffold' for bone repair offers for the first time a way to overcome such ...

Image: Schematic illustration of the design and bone regeneration potential of the flat-bone-mimetic bioceramic scaffolds. (A) The scaffolds are inspired by the sandwich structure of flat bone of ...

Researchers have made it easier to fabricate bone-like materials for surgical use through 3D printing with the development of a ceramic-based ink that includes living cells. Scientists from the ...

Researchers at Pennsylvania State University have developed a method to patch up injuries by 3D printing both hard and soft tissues at the same time, using two different “bioinks.” In tests on rats, ...
