Using 3D printing, a Novel Approach to Tumour Treatment

Ourian Sun

This article explores the burgeoning applications of 3D printing in the realm of tumor treatment, highlighting its transformative impact on surgical planning, radiation therapy, drug delivery, and tissue engineering [1]. By leveraging patient-specific anatomical models, customized implants, and prosthetics, 3D printing enhances surgical precision and functional restoration. The technology also enables precise radiation therapy through tailored bolus materials and calibration phantoms [2]. Moreover, 3D printing facilitates the creation of intricate drug delivery systems for personalized medicine, and it intersects with tissue engineering to develop bioprinted models for studying tumor behavior and validating treatment approaches. This article underscores the profound potential of 3D printing in revolutionizing tumor treatment and improving patient outcomes [3].
