Abstract—The paper presents experimental research on the realization of anatomical models using additive technologies using PLA (polylactic acid) material. Prototypes of human internal organs, cerebellum, brainstem, heart, maxillary dental arcade have been obtained, highlighting the advantages and benefits of RP technologies in medicine, especially in surgery and orthopedics by improving communication between doctors and patients, the latter understanding better diagnosis and surgical treatments using physical models printed through 3D technologies or for preparing surgical procedures.
Index Terms—Additive technologies, anatomical models, FDM, surgical tools.
