POSThome: Sleeping and Working Area in a Post-COVID Model Home
In Milan, on the third floor of a 1930s building, architecture and research have come together to create POSThome, a university residence that embraces all the trends of contemporary living in the post-COVID era. Recently, more than ever, living spaces have been under the scrutiny of architecture and research—two fields we always knew would eventually […]
PRINTMED-3D is proud to collaborate with Professor Gloria Pelizzo and her team at Vittore Buzzi Pediatric Hospital.
The collaboration between PRINTMED-3D and Professor Gloria Pelizzo’s team at Vittore Buzzi Pediatric Hospital has enabled the use of Virtual Reality in the field of pediatric surgery, which is primarily focused on malformative conditions. The goal is to enhance the understanding of complex anatomical structures and assist in preoperative planning.
3D model of the larynx
A haptic model of a trachea-larynx complex, 3D printed using newly developed materials that replicate the morphological and haptic characteristics of the human model, thanks to innovative techniques developed within the PRINTMED-3D project.
New VR solutions
VR and AR solutions developed within the PRINTMED-3D project by Maurizio Vertemati and his team for surgical applications.
UPsalute
In this episode of UPsalute, the topic of personalized liver surgery is analyzed with Professor Roberto Santambrogio, medical director of the General Surgery Unit (UOC), led by Professor Marco Antonio Zappa. Additionally, several experts contributed to the creation of this educational content: Professor Paolo Milani, from the Interdisciplinary Center for Nanostructured Materials and Interfaces (CIMaINa) […]
A new class of electroconductive gel for the simulation of electrosurgical techniques
Nowadays, in many surgical specialties, the use of electrosurgical devices has become a daily practice. However, realistic physical models on which to test instruments and procedures before clinical use are lacking. In this work, we have developed and characterized a new class of conductive gels designed to replicate the electrical behavior of human tissues when exposed […]
Inauguration of the PrintMed-3D Laboratory
On the 19th June 2024, at the “A. Pontremoli” Physics Department of the Università degli Studi di Milano, the new scientific and technological infrastructure of the PRINTMED-3D centre will be inaugurated in the presence of the Rector. This facility is dedicated to the creation of haptic and virtual models for advanced surgical training and education. […]
