A Review on Design and Fabrication of Biomedical Equipment with Additive Manufacturing

Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, has revolutionized various industries by enabling the creation of complex geometries with unprecedented ease and precision. In the field of medical applications, particularly in reconstructive surgery, additive manufacturing has emerged as a promising tool for fabricating patient-specific implants, including cranial implants such as skulls. This paper explores the advancements, challenges, and applications of additive manufacturing in skull reconstruction. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of using additive manufacturing techniques for producing customized skull implants. By reviewing recent literature and case studies, this paper discusses the technological developments in materials, printing techniques, and design methodologies that contribute to the successful implementation of 3D-printed skulls in medical.
