3D Printing Medical Devices Market Overview
As per Market Research Future (MRFR) analysis, the global 3D printing medical devices market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 18% from 2018 to 2023 (forecast period).
3D printing plays a vital role in the development of medical and dental devices. 3D printing is the most commonly used medical device and, due to its versatility, can also be used for other items, including food, household items, and automotive parts. The 3D printing technology is used to treat various types of therapies, such as hip and jaw titanium replacements, limb prosthetics and plastic tracheal splints, etc. Due to advanced technology and easy use of devices, many doctors prefer 3D printing devices before surgeries of any organ part that may minimize error. A computer-aided design drawing or a magnetic resonance image is a 3D object created from a digital 3D image. The 3D object is formed by creating successive layers of material in which each layer is connected to the previous layer until the object is complete. Various types of materials are used to create a 3D image.
