Abstract

The growth and development in the biomedical field are very essential for the sustainable and holistic well-being of our entire society. The shortage of patient-specific products is the main limitation in the biomedical field. This cutting-edge technology can contribute to the advancement of several sectors including aviation, automotive, biomedical etc. It has revolutionized the production of medical instruments, organs, tissue regeneration, drug delivery platform, scaffolds, and implants. Many operative and post-operative processes in the medical field are now quite easy due to the new inventions in 3D printing. In this review, different additive manufacturing techniques and various applications of 3D printing in the biomedical field are compiled. Using examples to analyze the technology in depth, existing challenges and future outlooks are presented.
