A 14 month-old boy is found with heart defects. The Kosair Children's Hospital in Louisville Kentucky knows that he needs surgery, but with multiple defects, it would be difficult to see precisely ...

A thin, flexible silicone membrane made on a 3D printer could be used to mimic the outer layer of the heart and potentially be used for disorders such as atrial fibrillation.

Chicago-based biotech company Biolife4D claims to have 3D bioprinted a miniaturized human heart — chambers, ventricles, and all.

The first biohybrid model of human ventricles has been used to answer a centuries-old question. Unlike other organs, the heart cannot repair itself after injury, so being able to engineer an entire ...

Besides, we don’t have enough biomedical specialists to build these models.” Kothari is hoping to make 3D-printed products accessible across India, including rural areas.
