On the most recent episode of Bones, a team of forensic anthropologists scanned and uploaded a skeleton to the cloud, so that another team could download and print the bones halfway around the world ...

Researchers at the Computational Mechanics and Experimental Biomechanics Lab at Tel Aviv University conducted a clinical evaluation of the characteristics of bone models that were 3D printed on the ...

University of Texas at Dallas mechanical engineers have designed a 3D-printed femur that could help doctors prepare for surgeries to repair bones and develop treatments for bone tumors. The engineers, ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

A 3-dimensional (3D) tissue-engineered model of bone marrow that can produce functional human platelets outside the body (ex vivo) has been created by a group of scientists. Researchers funded by the ...

When a patient is diagnosed with osteosarcoma, an aggressive form of bone cancer, the mission is to remove the tumor entirely. Leaving behind even a microscopic cluster of malignant cells can be the ...

Crown Bioscience developed a 3D bone marrow niche (BMN) model to advance preclinical drug screening for hematological malignancies such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and multiple myeloma (MM). The ...

The bone marrow serves as the main site of hematopoiesis in humans, giving rise to red and white blood cells. This space is highly organized into distinct regions, or niches, that perform different ...

A new miniature 3D model of human bone marrow has just been described. The model may help clinicians predict which patients will benefit from a new therapy for blood platelet disorders, such as ...
