3D liver model-based surgical education improves preoperative decision-making and patient satisfaction-a randomized pilot trial

Esther Giehl-Brown et al.

Summary: The objective of this study is to enhance patient satisfaction with surgical education in hepatobiliary surgery by utilizing individual 3D-printed liver models. The results show that the use of 3D models can improve patients' understanding of the surgical procedure and their awareness of postoperative complications, thereby increasing their satisfaction.

Comparison of 3D printing model to 3D virtual reconstruction and 2D imaging for the clinical education of interns in hepatocellular carcinoma: a randomized controlled study

Jian Cheng et al.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the effects of a patient-specific 3D printing liver model on the clinical education of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A total of 62 interns were randomly assigned to each group (3D printing model, 3D virtual reconstruction, and MDCT groups) and tested on various aspects of HCC education. The interns using the 3D printing model showed significantly higher scores and satisfaction levels compared to the other groups.

Patient-Specific 3D Printed Soft Models for Liver Surgical Planning and Hands-On Training

Arnau Valls-Esteve et al.

Summary: This study presents an innovative and cost-effective approach for producing patient-specific 3D anatomical models for simulation and training. Three hepatic surgeries were planned using 3D simulators built with 3D printing and silicone moulding techniques. The 3D physical models accurately replicated the actual condition and were more cost-effective compared to other models. This research demonstrates the value of manufacturing accurate and cost-effective 3D-printed surgical planning simulators for liver cancer treatment.

Role of CT in Two-Stage Liver Surgery

Diego M. Haberman et al.

Summary: Complete resection is the only potentially curative treatment for liver tumors, and advancements in surgical techniques have expanded the criteria for resection. CT plays a critical role in the multidisciplinary approach of two-stage hepatectomy, providing important information for surgical planning and monitoring.

Value of 3D printing technology combined with indocyanine green fluorescent navigation in complex laparoscopic hepatectomy

Jian Cheng et al.

Summary: This study explored the effects and value of a modified procedure called complex laparoscopic hepatectomy (CLH) using three-dimensional printing (3DP) and indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging technology. The results showed that this modified procedure is safe and effective, but did not improve intraoperative and short-term outcomes.

3D Printing of Prototypes Starting from Medical Imaging: A Liver Case Study

Robinson Guachi et al.

Summary: This study creates a digital liver model using Computer Aided Design (CAD) technology and image segmentation, and produces a liver prototype using fused deposition modelling (FDM) technique. It provides a valuable method for optimizing preoperative plans for liver disease, and offers a tool to accelerate the learning curve for new doctors.

Producing three-dimensional printed models of the hepatobiliary system from computed tomography imaging data

R. W. Smillie et al.

Summary: Traditional macroscopic anatomy education has been conducted using cadaveric material, lectures, and various resources. However, there are drawbacks to traditional plastic models, which can be solved by three-dimensional printed models. This study utilizes computed tomography to develop an accurate three-dimensional model of the hepatobiliary system, which could aid in teaching anatomy to medical students and surgical trainees.

Virtual reality and 3D printing improve preoperative visualization of 3D liver reconstructions-results from a preclinical comparison of presentation modalities and user's preference

Florentine Huettl et al.

Summary: The study compared 3D PDFs, 3D printed models (PR), and virtual reality (VR) 3D models with regard to anatomical orientation and personal preferences, finding that PR and VR models enable better and sometimes faster anatomical orientation compared to 3D PDF reconstructions. Participants named significantly more correct segments in VR or PR compared to PDF, with HPB experts performing significantly faster and more accurately than medical students regardless of the modality. Test results for spatial thinking and seeing had no influence on time but on correctness of tumor assignment. Participants preferred the VR application due to its multiple functions and usability.
