Transforming medical images into human tissue with 3D bioprinting

Researchers at Mayo Clinic are using technology to produce tissue models of different body parts to study damaged or diseased tissues and organs. Their 3D bioprinters use biocompatible materials containing living cells to print three-dimensional structures of tissue that could be used to improve human health. The final 3D tissue model can mimic the structure, mechanics, and physiology of human organs, muscles, or cartilage.
