Baby's Skull Rebuilt With Help From A 3D Printer
schwit1 writes: A team at Stony Brook Children's Hospital was able to use a 3-D printer to produce a replica of baby Vincent's skull, which, in turn, allowed the medical team to fully rehearse the surgery long before they stepped into the operating room. Through a collaboration with Medical Modeling in Colorado, known now as 3D Systems, Egnor and Duboys were able to virtually plan the entire surgery in advance.

The company also created a model of what Vincent's skull should look like after surgery.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
