Abstract


In this post, we will present a complete and up-to-date overview of 3D printing as well as its utilization in biomedicine. We show and discuss 3D printing technology, materials, cells, and their applications related to biomedical engineering. We provide our research and perspectives on the problems of 3D printing in biomedical engineering, as well as potential future advances. It is clear that 3D printing is becoming increasingly essential in biomedical engineering, with the potential to produce an extensive variety of high-value biomedical items.

This comprehensive study can assist in understanding the present state and identifying future prospects for 3D printing in biomedical engineering, and also advancing 3D printing toward the production of newer and better biomedical goods.
