3 D printing in radiotherapy – technology and application

Julia Christin Soltner

Abstract

In der heutigen Zeit schreitet die Technik so rasant fort, dass es schwierig ist, alle Potenziale der neuen Technologie sofort zu erkennen. Eine mittlerweile weit verbreitete Technologie ist der 3-D-Druck. Dieser hat sich in den letzten Jahren enorm weiterentwickelt und etablierte sich somit auch in der Medizin. Dieser Artikel befasst sich mit den Prinzipien des 3-D-Drucks und zeigt einige Anwendungsbeispiele im Bereich der Strahlentherapie.

Nowadays, technology is developing so rapidly that it is difficult to immediately recognize all the potential of the new technology. A now widespread technology is 3 D printing, which has been developed enormously in recent years and established itself in medicine. Thanks to 3 D printing, various parts can be produced quickly and easily by the user, thus improving workflows. 3 D printing also offers the possibility to create new processes so that results can be optimized. This article deals with the principles of 3 D printing and shows some application examples in the field of radiotherapy.
