Additive Manufacturing of Resected Oral and Oropharyngeal Tissue: A Pilot Study

Additive Manufacturing of Resected Oral and Oropharyngeal Tissue: A Pilot Study

Better visualization of tumor structure and orientation are needed in the postoperative setting. We aimed to assess the feasibility of a system in which oral and oropharyngeal tumors are resected, photographed, 3D modeled, and printed using additive manufacturing techniques. Three patients diagnosed...
