How 3D Printed Anatomical Models Improve Surgical Planning in Hospitals: What the Latest Research Shows

by | Oct 27, 2025

Summary

Learn about point-of-care 3D printing, a new approach that can lead to improved surgical outcomes.

As personalized medicine continues to shape healthcare, hospitals are seeking smarter ways to deliver more precise, patient-centered care. One of the most important innovations driving this shift is point-of-care 3D printing – producing 3d anatomical models inside the hospital so teams can plan complex procedures faster and with more confidence.

A growing body of clinical research confirms what leading health systems have seen firsthand: hospital 3D printing, especially for surgical planning with 3D printing, can significantly improve surgical outcomes, reduce operating room time, and boost team confidence across specialties.

ASA Filament vs. ABS: Which Should You Use for Outdoor and UV-Exposed Parts?

ABS is the default for functional 3D printing, but it has one fatal flaw outdoors: UV exposure breaks it down. ASA filament was engineered to fix that. It matches ABS on mechanical properties, prints easier in real-world setups, and holds up in sunlight where ABS does not. Here’s the chemistry, the spec comparison, and when each material is the right pick for your application.
