Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago and the University of Hong Kong have developed a breakthrough algorithm to automate the design of 3D-printed jaw implants. By processing CT and MRI data directly, the system slashes complex CAD modeling time from several hours to just minutes, allowing surgeons to oversee the entire digital workflow. This data-driven approach significantly reduces labor costs and human error, paving the way for scalable point-of-care manufacturing. 🏥🚀 #AdditiveManufacturing #MedTech #3DPrinting #DigitalHealth #Innovation
