ENT specialists use 3D printed skulls to train students and physicians

For those who swim, they all know how uncomfortable it is if the nose gets into the water. However, for people with chronic nasal diseases, water is their favorite substance. When someone has trouble with the nasal cavity, such as a severe infection or nosebleeds, nasal scientists and residents often need a long narroscope that can be introduced deep into the nasal cavity to see what is wrong.

"Most patients are not used to having a foreign body sensation in the nose, so they may be nervous," Dr. Jose Gurrola II said in a UVA press release, working for a nasal specialist at the Virginia Health System University in the United States.

To make the treatment more comfortable, Gurrola teamed up with Dr. Robert Reed, MD, who works at UVA, and Dwight Dart, director of the UVA Advanced Manufacturing and Rapid Imitation Lab, to develop a 3D printed skull for teaching training.

“These models allow students, residents, and doctors to observe, understand, and understand the relevant human structures,” Dart said at a press conference, adding that 3D printing will revolutionize medical practice in the coming years.

Printable data is collected from a CT or MRI scan of the patient's skull and sent to a 3D printer. Doctors combine these skull models with surgical simulation software to train residents in laboratory training without the need for actual patients or physicians to practice with each other.

3D printed skull and mask models may seem a bit creepy, but they are relatively inexpensive and highly reproducible relative to real patients or simulated patients during actual teaching practice.

However, there are also some problems, such as the lack of real conditioning, the lack of real subtle skills of students and residents.
