💡Produce artificial bones with high strength and bone replacement with 3D printers

Visiting researcher Shinta Oyama of RIKEN Image Information Processing Research Team, Yuki Tsujimura Technical Staff I, Yokota Hideo Team Leader, Technical Infrastructure Support Team Vice Team Leader Yamazawa Kenji Vice Team Leader, Ricoh Co., Ltd. Masaki Watanabe Specialist’s collaborative research group * developed a method for manufacturing “artificial bone” by reproducing the shape of the defect part including the inside of the bone of the patient by “3D printer [1]” technology.

This research will be announced at the Society For Biomaterials’ 2018 Annual Meeting to be held in Atlanta, USA (April 11 th and 13 th: April 12 th and 14 th Japan time).
