Doctors in the U.S. have successfully transplanted a 3D-printed ear implant that uses the patient’s cells.

is looking at how safe and effective the AuriNovo implant will be, with the goal of replacing current ear reconstruction surgeries that require doctors to use rib cartilage or certain implants.

The manufacturing process begins by taking a small sample of the patient’s ear to create billions of cartilage cells. The living cells are then mixed with the company’s collagen-based “bio ink,” which is safe for the body. The 3D bio-printer uses that ink to create an object based on a digital model that copies the patient’s healthy ear.

People use GIFs to share the latest stupid meme that took 10 seconds to make. That stuff needs a lot of work and good 3D content. Looks cool though. Thanks. That’s kind of a cool update + head’s up! 🧘‍♀️💡⭐️💜 This is a JPG map of the frames being animated with JS. That’s not a true image format.
