Article Synopsis
- In otosurgical training, challenges like limited access to cadaveric temporal bones have led to the exploration of 3D-printed models as alternatives to enhance training effectiveness.
- A 3D model of the middle ear was created using micro-CT imaging and printed from transparent photopolymers, which showed realistic anatomical features during testing with otosurgeons and residents.
- Feedback suggested that while the 3D-printed models provided good maneuverability, some residents found the haptic feedback during procedures lacking; however, both groups saw potential for these models in future training.
