Advanced biotechnology may be coming to your local hospital’s operating room.
An Australian technology firm teamed up with orthopedic surgeons at St. Vincent's Hospital in Melbourne to develop a 3D printing pen that creates customized cartilage implants during surgery, IB Times reported.
The pen uses a gel bio-ink to carry and help human stem cells survive and build layers of tissue for implants.
When doctors do a cartilage repair, it can be difficult to know exactly what shape of artificial cartilage they will need prior to surgery.
The study was published by the medical journal Biofabrication.
