A modern mold room: Meshing 3D surface scanning, digital design, and 3D printing with bolus fabrication.

Purpose: This case series represents an initial experience with implementing 3-dimensional (3D) surface scanning, digital design, and 3D printing for bolus fabrication for patients with complex surface anatomy where traditional approaches are challenging.

Methods And Materials: For 10 patients requiring bolus in regions with complex contours, bolus was designed digitally from 3D surface scanning data or computed tomography (CT) images using either a treatment planning system or mesh editing software. Boluses were printed using a fused deposition modeling printer with polylactic acid.
