3-D printing, or additive manufacturing, is no longer some farfetched concept dreamed up by science fiction enthusiasts. The technology has already gained a lot of ground, and according to Forbes, 2013 shows no signs of slowing down.
For instance, because this technique allows products to be custom-matched to an exact body shape, it is already being used for making titanium bone implants, prosthetic limbs and orthodontic devices. Looking ahead, we can expect to hear about experiments in printing soft tissue. Even better, keep an eye out for updates on surgeon Anthony Atala’s quest to solve the organ-donor problem (i.e., a 3-D printer that uses living cells to output a transplantable kidney).
