Re: [sudo-discuss] 3D printing my MRI ... scraps of something getting started

I totally think there's a market for making a 21st century anatomical model. We used to have one of those plastic torso dummies at school, with removable internal organs, each in a different color. We could make one of those, except 3D printed from real body scans. Check out the Visible Human Project for a really cool whole-body dataset: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_Human_Project Patrik On Tue, Apr 14, 2015 at 8:57 PM, Ryan <yandoryn(a)gmail.com> wrote: I recently got a cervical spine MRI done, and would love to print it. I mean, it's a spine! Still need to go pick up the disc, though.

The ortho doc that I am seeing was very excitedly asking me on how it would be possible to do 3d projections and prints of these joints, and I just read the article in make magazine on my way back. I'm very interested in replicating this, and if possible generate a low cost guide for folks and doctors. This shit is way to important for expensive consultants to eat up the market. I'm more than happy to come in next week and start collaborating!

I have wanted to 3D Print my MRI of my ankle! I'm trying to overcome some hurdles > -- I'm fundamentally a software and 2D digital person normally, it's hard for me to get into 3D modelling -- I'm used to keyboards, not wrenches and touching things which is why I go to hardware hack night I want to get beyond the stages of just looking at stuff on the 3D Printer. Anyone else up to it? I'm wondering if I should come in more than once a week... ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss
