A presentation by Helda Pahlavani, Faculty of 3mE, Mechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineering, Delft University of Technology.
The patient-specific (PS) design of prosthetics and orthotics is a common approach to design various medical devices (e.g., transtibial sockets). Such PS designs are based on the patient’s anatomy obtained from different medical imaging modalities thus allowing for better fixation and improving the patient’s comforts and enabling successful rehabilitation.

A presentation by Pieter Slagmolen, Innovation Manager at Materialise.
Personalization is becoming increasingly important for medical devices, be it through the incorporation of predictive planning approaches or through patient-specific design of the devices with 3D printing.

presentation by Sandra Van Vlierberghe, Ghent University.
Biofabrication is a specific area within the field of tissue engineering which takes advantage of rapid manufacturing (RM) techniques to generate 3D structures which mimic the natural extracellular matrix (ECM). A popular material in this respect is gelatin, as it is a cost-effective collagen derivative, which is the major constituent of the natural ECM.

We welcome 3DIFIC as Gold Partner of Online 3D Medtech Printing Conference (4 CME credits), 2 February 2021, 14:00 – 18:00 CET REGISTER HERE
3DIFIC is an innovative startup, under the Italian Law, and has been spinoffed by the School of Medicine of the University of Perugia (Perugia, Italy). In the last years 3DIFIC has developed a number of cases in surgery and in dental practice. Now 3DIFIC accounts for a number of cases with either high complexity or high volumes potential, thanks to an extraordinary team that was put together in the years.

Cathy Ye, Associate Professor, Director of Oxford Centre for Tissue Engineering and Bioprocessing, University of Oxford, will moderate the 2021 edition of the conference.
Professor Hua Ye, University of Oxford
Dr. Ye is an Associate Professor in Engineering Science in the Institute of Biomedical Engineering at University of Oxford. Dr. Ye holds a degree in Chemical Engineering from Dalian University of Technology (1998), China and a Ph.D. in Engineering from University of Oxford (2005).
3DMed is an ongoing multi-national project, financially supported by the European Regional Development Fund. In this short presentation, the background, main objectives and expected results will be introduced. It is intended to attract the interest of potential users, for example, hospitals, software houses, the medical device industry and other service providers, in the uptake of the 3D printing technology for advanced medical treatment to benefit a large patient population across Europe.
