Integration of this technology into neurosurgical practice is still in its nascence, however. One potential application is to create models depicting neurosurgical pathology. The goal of this study was to assess the clinical value of patient-specific 3D printed models for neurosurgical planning and education.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n METHODS<\/jats:title>\n The authors created life-sized, patient-specific models for 4 preoperative cases. Three of the cases involved adults (2 patients with petroclival meningioma and 1 with trigeminal neuralgia) and the remaining case involved a pediatric patient with craniopharyngioma. Models were derived from routine clinical imaging sequences and manufactured using commercially available software and hardware.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n Life-sized, 3D printed models depicting bony, vascular, and neural pathology relevant to each case were successfully manufactured. A variety of commercially available software and hardware were used to create and print each model from radiological sequences. The models for the adult cases were printed in separate pieces, which had to be painted by hand, and could be disassembled for detailed study, while the model for the pediatric case was printed as a single piece in separate-colored resins and could not be disassembled for study. Two of the models were used for patient education, and all were used for presurgical planning by the surgeon.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n Patient-specific 3D printed models are useful to neurosurgical practice. They may be used as a visualization aid for surgeons and patients, or for education of trainees.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/2019.9.focus19511","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,6]],"date-time":"2019-12-06T18:18:29Z","timestamp":1575656309000},"page":"E12","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":66,"title":["Patient-specific 3-dimensionally printed models for neurosurgical planning and education"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"47","author":[{"given":"Sandip S.","family":"Panesar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Houston Methodist Hospital, Houston, Texas;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Magnetta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Northwestern University, Chicago, Illinois;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Debraj","family":"Mukherjee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kumar","family":"Abhinav","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Barton F.","family":"Branstetter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Radiology and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paul A.","family":"Gardner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Neurological Surgery, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Iv","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiology, Stanford University, Stanford, California; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Juan C.","family":"Fernandez-Miranda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurosurgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1","series-title":"Front Neuroanat","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"69","DOI":"10.3389\/fnana.2016.00069","article-title":"Current applications and future perspectives of the use of 3D printing in anatomical training and neurosurgery","volume":"10","author":"Baskaran V","year":"2016","unstructured":"Baskaran V, \u0160trkalj G, \u0160trkalj M, Di Ieva A: Current applications and future perspectives of the use of 3D printing in anatomical training and neurosurgery.
