Abstract |
|
This paper is focused on use of 3d printing technology for the application of bone fracture healing inside of plater of Paris, the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) files of the human hand have been collected in the form of Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine format. The MRI files have been segmented by using 3D slicer software for creating the negative mould of the human hand and saved in stereolethography file format. In order to generate the G-code for 3D printing machine, the STL file has been sliced in to N number of layers, then 3D printed human hand mould has been fabricated by using Fusion Deposition Modeling machine. |
