The Austin 3dMedLab was out in force at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons and Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists Annual Scientific Congress in Sydney recently.
With 3 posters and one presentation, 3D technology is certainly making its mark in the operating theatre and surgical management.
We were also very proud to see the strong focus on clinical leadership, communication and diversity.
Presentation
Posters
- 3D Printing: A Stepping Stone to Personalised Surgery — J Coles-Black, J Chuen
- The Current Landscape of 3D Printing in Endovascular Intervention — J Coles-Black, J Chuen
- Assessing the characteristics of a 3D printed airway model for cricothyroidotomy simulation training in anaesthesia — D Munteanu, I Chao, J Young, J Coles-Black, L Ellard, J Chuen
Tweets of note
A new study has discovered how 3D printing is improving quality and safety in surgery. The study found 3D printing improved patient and carer understanding of their anatomy and the planned surgical procedure. Findings presented today at the #RACS18 ASC https://t.co/lp9LdrJgkk pic.twitter.com/OmFD2VeXl1

#Leadership in the modern era is not about strength, foolhard bravery, or dominance. Modern #ClinicalLeaders must exchange positional influence and #hierarchy for #connectivity, #engagement, #networks and #sensemaking – @claremarx #RACS18 @RACSurgeons pic.twitter.com/mN0rZiImPe

@ozvascdoc explains how #3dprinting provides "just-in-time" manufacturing and massively disrupts the modern medical supply chain. Less costs in transports and storage result. #RACS18 @anzsvs @RACSurgeons pic.twitter.com/PpiHTOHUJm
