Use of a 3D printer to create a bolus for patients undergoing tele-radiotherapy
Background: This study describes the possibility of implementing three-dimensional printing technology to create a precise construction of a planned bolus, based on computed tomography information stored in the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) format file. Materials and Methods: To create the bolus with a 3D printer, we converted data in the DICOM format to the s...
متن کاملThe educational value of autopsy in a residency training program.
BACKGROUND Historically, the autopsy has been an indispensable educational tool. Over the past several decades, however, the national autopsy rate has declined and the educational role of autopsy in modern medicine is being questioned. OBJECTIVE To assess the educational value of autopsy attendance in an internal medicine residency program. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of all...
متن کامل[Simulation training in ophthalmology].
BACKGROUND Simulation in medicine is an indispensable tool to improve doctors' responses to different situations, enhancing their performance. However, simulation in ophthalmology is a very recent trend, mainly because of the high complexity of developing newer teaching tools, with the need for highly realistic models, mostly in surgical ophthalmic simulation. DISCUSSION The whole development...
متن کاملThinking like Archimedes with a 3D printer
We illustrate Archimedes’ method using models produced with 3D printers. This approach allowed us to create physical proofs of results known to Archimedes and to illustrate ideas of a mathematician who is known both for his mechanical inventions as well as his breakthroughs in geometry and calculus. We use technology from the 21st century to trace intellectual achievements from the 3rd century ...

autologous reconstruction as compared with tissue expander reconstruction (4.5 percent versus 2.1 percent; p<0.001). There were significantly more debridements performed in cases where ICG was used (5.6 percent versus 3.2 percent; p<0.001). Use of ICG added a mean charge of $9,080 per reconstruction ($79,242 vs. $70,162; p<0.001); however, it also resulted in a decreased LOS (2.37 days versus 2...
