Abstract
This review paper contains a literature survey about some additive manufacturing technologies and their medical use. Additive Manufacturing is a generic term referring to several technologies used to create physical models or prototype parts based on 3D drawings. Additive Manufacturing models can be used for various testing methods. The paper summarizes the application of Additive Manufacturing Technologies in medicine. It describes the main steps for how to create 3D models for medical applications. Some details can be found on the topics: Data acquisition using medical scanners; Data transformation; Creation of virtual 3D models; Surgical planning and simulation on the virtual 3D model; and Creation of Physical 3D Models for Additive Manufacturing Technologies. 3D physical models can be extremely useful in planning complex surgical interventions, which can be simulated on these models before the actual procedure.
