3D Printing of Intracranial Aneurysms Using Fused Deposition Modeling Offers Highly Accurate Replications

Abstract

Fused deposition modeling is a promising technique, which allows rapid and precise replication of cerebral aneurysms. The porosity of the models can be overcome by surface finishing. Models produced with fused deposition modeling may serve as educational and research tools and could be used to individualize treatment planning.
