#3d Printed Brain regions Help Neurosurgeons Prepare for Difficult Procedures While neurosurgeons have been able to virtually navigate volumetric images of patientsbrain structures gathered from CT and MRI scans,
difficult procedures within complex anatomy still remains challenging. At Boston Children Hospital, physicians are now using 3d-printed replicas of brain regions theyl be working on to practice with before actual surgery.
The researchers studying how the new capability may help in neurosurgery have focused on pediatric patients with cerebrovascular malformations requiring surgical or radiological intervention.
