Italian 3D printer manufacturer World's Advanced Saving Project (WASP) is offering a free add-on to 3D modeling software that enables users to create 3D-printed orthopedic devices based on medical images.
The software add-on allows clinicians to produce 3D-printed medical devices to facilitate orthopedic care using open-source 3D modeling software (Blender). The tool features step-by-step commands that increase the accessibility of 3D modeling for medical professionals who may not have prior experience using the technology, a WASP spokesperson noted in an article on 3DPrintingIndustry.com.
