The Queensland man's aorta, the biggest blood vessel in the body, had ballooned to about four times the usual size, leaving it in danger of rupturing.

UBC Okanagan researchers have developed a 3D bio-printed model that closely mimics the complexity of natural lung tissue, an ...

Researchers have created an advanced model that can detect lung damage in long-COVID patients using a simple chest X-ray. The model takes data points from 3D CT lung scans and transfers them to be ...

A 21-year-old woman says her life is transformed after revolutionary surgery using world-first 3D technology on a birth defect known as "sunken chest".

Vascular surgeon Dr Samantha Peden told the Australian News broadcaster that the patient’s aortic arch had ballooned to around eight centimetres, well beyond the usual two to three. The wall was so ...

A man has had his chest rebuilt using 3D printing technology during an operation to remove a large tumour. The prosthesis was inserted into Peter Maggs' chest after he had three ribs and half his ...

Methods: In the initial phase, an 89-marker protocol will be validated against a 3D-printed chest wall model that can produced simulate of normal and abnormal motions. Retroreflective markers will be ...
