Abstract
A post-medical-procedure therapy device includes a body part replica that is a replica of a body part of a patient that has undergone a medical procedure; and customized information provided on the body part replica, where both the body part replica and the customized information are 3D printed, and where the customized information includes a handwritten message provided to the patient after the medical procedure.
Claims20
A post-medical-procedure therapy device, comprising:
- a body part replica that is a replica of a body part of a patient that has undergone a medical procedure;
- and
- customized information provided on the body part replica,
- wherein both the body part replica and the customized information are 3D printed, and
- wherein the customized information comprises a handwritten message provided to the patient after the medical procedure.
A 3D printer, comprising:
- 3D printer hardware configured to print a 3D object, the 3D printer hardware comprising:
- a print head configured to heat filament and extrude the heated filament;
- and
- a print bed upon which the extruded filament is configured to be deposited on a layer-by-layer basis to thereby print the 3D object;
- and
- an application stored in the 3D printer hardware, the application configured to:
- receive a finalized design of a post-medical-procedure therapy device, the finalized design comprising information indicating a body part replica to be 3D printed based on a medical image and customized information added to the body part replica, and
- control the 3D printer hardware to 3D print the post-medical procedure therapy device based on the finalized design.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon an application which, when executed, causes a processor housed within an electronic device to execute the operations of:
- accessing a medical image stored in a memory of the electronic device;
- generating and displaying, on a screen of the electronic device, an initial design of a post-medical-procedure therapy device to be 3D printed by a 3D printer based on the medical image;
- receiving, on the screen of the electronic device, user input adding customized information to the initial design;
- generating and displaying a finalized design of the post-medical-procedure therapy device based on the user input;
- and
- transmitting the finalized design to the 3D printer and controlling the 3D printer to 3D print the post-medical-procedure therapy device based on the finalized design.
