Design and Construction of a Mock Human Circulatory System
INTRODUCTION Congestive heart failure (CHF) contributes to more than 300,000 deaths every year in the United States [1]. CHF is a condition that causes the heart to inadequately distribute blood to the rest of the body, resulting in heart failure, poor perfusion, and ultimately, multisystem organ failure. Approximately 70,000 patients may benefit from a heart transplant, however, with only 2000...
متن کامل3D Printed Anatomical Nerve Regeneration Pathways.
An imaging-coupled 3D printing methodology for the design, optimization, and fabrication of a customized nerve repair technology for complex injuries is presented. The custom scaffolds are deterministically fabricated via a microextrusion printing principle which enables the simultaneous incorporation of anatomical geometries, biomimetic physical cues, and spatially controlled biochemical gradi...
متن کاملFrom medical imaging data to 3D printed anatomical models
Anatomical models are important training and teaching tools in the clinical environment and are routinely used in medical imaging research. Advances in segmentation algorithms and increased availability of three-dimensional (3D) printers have made it possible to create cost-efficient patient-specific models without expert knowledge. We introduce a general workflow that can be used to convert vo...
متن کاملA closed circulatory system model.
The model to be described is a “closed” system, comprised of four principal components : a pump, an arterial capacitance, a peripheral resistance, and a venous capacitance. The pump is servo-controlled, such that “cardiac output” is a function of venous pressure (FrankStarling mechanism). Also, because the model is a closed system, the venous pressure is a function of the cardiac output. The mo...
متن کامل3D printed nervous system on a chip.
Bioinspired organ-level in vitro platforms are emerging as effective technologies for fundamental research, drug discovery, and personalized healthcare. In particular, models for nervous system research are especially important, due to the complexity of neurological phenomena and challenges associated with developing targeted treatment of neurological disorders. Here we introduce an additive ma...
