3D Printing in Podiatric Medicine compiles an interdisciplinary range of scientific literature, laboratory developments, industrial implications and futuristic avenues in this field. The book provides recent developments and research breakthroughs in 3D printing in podiatric medicine, such as functionalized feedstock systems, smart products, process characteristics, modeling and optimization of printed systems and products, and industrial applications. It covers best practices for 3D printing methods to capture, document and validate challenges at the early stage of the design process. The book's content then goes into mitigating design strategies to address these challenges without compromising the cost, safety and quality of the device.
This book supports new and emerging specializations and provides a comprehensive collection of technical notes, research designs, design methods and processes and case studies.
