IU Health has a new lab for 3D-printing model organs. The models help clinicians plan surgeries, communicate with patients ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

University of Texas at Dallas mechanical engineers have designed a 3D-printed femur that could help doctors prepare for surgeries to repair bones and develop treatments for bone tumors. The engineers, ...

For someone suffering from brittle bone disease, life is fraught with complications. The slightest misstep, a seemingly harmless fall or even one false move can be all it takes to leave them with a ...

Bone disorders represent a significant global burden. Currently, animal models are used to develop and screen novel treatments. However, interspecies variations and ethical concerns highlight the need ...

Weight-bearing cone beam computed tomography (WB-CBCT, or simply WBCT), which captures high-resolution 3D images in a natural standing position, has gained increasing interest in recent years. This ...

The next step will be coming up with 3D design protocols for a wider range of bone models. "Once we can print 3D models with confidence that they will behave mechanically like actual bones, we could ...

Crown Bioscience developed a 3D bone marrow niche (BMN) model to advance preclinical drug screening for hematological malignancies such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and multiple myeloma (MM). The ...

The bone marrow serves as the main site of hematopoiesis in humans, giving rise to red and white blood cells. This space is highly organized into distinct regions, or niches, that perform different ...

A Labrador retriever named Ava is back to running and playing with her family after her second double hip replacement, courtesy of Texas A&M University veterinarians, computerized tomography ...
