#repost @epic_lab_ It’s been a while, but always love getting the #form3 out! Do you know what body part this is?

Does your child wear ankle-foot orthoses and are you based in Sydney? If yes, we’d love to hear from you! Join us to take an active role in designing better AFOs for children.

Medical students are ranking the 3D heart module as number one during their training at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead. See how @tegancheng is helping lead the revolution of #3Dprinting in healthcare:

Read about how we used #3DPrinting to produce models of hearts to help medical students! Another amazing collaboration between so many talented colleagues🥰 @SCHNkids @Sydney_Uni

Hot of the press!! New paper describing plaster modification for AFO fabrication. Well done @joyce_zw @tegancheng @BurnsSyd and team. #orthotics

[Tegan Cheng, PhD @tegancheng]

Wow. It’s up! Our paper on mapping #orthotist plaster modification when making AFOs has been published in @NaturePortfolio @SciReports 🤩 We used 3D scanning and digital models to understand *what* orthotists do when they’re modifying casts. Open access 👇 https://t.co/xmYkHfMjls

#repost @epic_lab_ This has to be our favourite step in our #form3 3D printing process. https://t.co/BLdFvbi3JR

This has to be our favourite step in our #form3 3D printing process.

[EPIC Lab @epic_lab_]

Trying out some new resins on our new #form3. With so many new materials being developed for 3D printing it’s always fun to see if they suit our needs! Any guesses for this body part? (Hint: there’s 2 because the print is duplicated)

Spinning around 💃🕺 Can you guess what body part this is??
We are loving our new Form 3 printer and finishing kits! We’ve been using it to print and prototype some medical education and training tools, like this one.

#repost epic_lab_ On the theme of print filament colours.. is 3D printing a heart anatomical model in red creepy or cool? 🤔

On the theme of print filament colours.. is 3D printing a heart anatomical model in red creepy or cool? 🤔

#anatomicmodel #3dprinting #medical3dprinting

[EPIC Lab @epic_lab_]

When we run out of white, we print our #anatomicalmodel in whatever colour filament is lying around.. Would a purple skull throw off your pre-operative visualisation? 🤔

Please ignore our messed up print bed cover 🤫

New EPIC Lab paper published!! How good do those prints look?!

[Tegan Cheng, PhD @tegancheng]

NEW paper out!! Hot off the press is this case report where we used #3dprinting to help guide halo pin placement in sisters with bone dysplasia. An awesome clinical use for an awesome technology. See more 👇

Happy Holidays from the EPIC Lab! Hope everyone has a restful break and takes some time to recover from a very eventful year.

Here’s to 2021! 🥳
