Design, Stereolithographic 3D Printing, and Characterization of TPMS Scaffolds.

Anatomical and functional tissue loss is one of the most debilitating problems and involves a great cost to the international health-care sector. In the field of bone tissue, the use of scaffolds to promote tissue regeneration is a topic of great interest. In this study, a combination of additive manufacturing and computational methods led to creating porous scaffolds with complex microstructure and mechanical behavior comparable to those of cancellous bone.
