Top 1: Improving mobility with 3D printing
Naveed & Samiya Parvez, co-founders of Andiamo explain how their company came to exist and explain how simulation helps to change the lives of children suffering from movement difficulties. They take 3D body data and turn it into custom medical devices that are 3D printed. These medical devices are orthoses (external body braces) for children that have complex needs.
Top 2: Metal additive manufacturing for spinal devices
The spinal device manufacturer NuVasive, partnered with 3D Systems’ Customer Innovation Center to push the boundaries of what is possible with metal additive manufacturing (AM). Leveraging 3D Systems’ team of experts and regulatory experience, NuVasive is able to create 3D printed spinal devices that balance interconnected porosities, stiffness, and imaging characteristics to transform surgery, advance care, and ultimately change patients’ lives.
