How Segmentation-as-a-Service can transform 3D printing at the point of care
Imagine if your printing lab could meet every request for a 3D model quickly and cost-effectively. Imagine if you never had to make that difficult choice between creating a model for one surgical procedure and not another. Imagine if the answer was always yes. 3D print lab managers know the multiple benefits that patient-specific, 3D […]

Innovating for the ‘new normal’ in delivering surgery services
History tells us that organizations that invest in innovation during a crisis outperform their peers in the recovery – McKinsey. COVID-19 has disrupted surgical services in hospitals across the country, leading to the cancellation or deferral of millions of elective procedures, resulting in a significant backlog of elective surgeries, and leaving many hospital systems across the […]
3 ways 3D modeling can reduce surgery costs in your hospital
The COVID-19 pandemic has put tremendous financial stress on hospitals around the world. This is in part due to the postponement or cancellation of elective procedures, especially orthopedic surgeries, which are among the most profitable for these hospitals. To remain financially solvent, hospitals are being faced with the pressure of finding ways to move through […]
Innovation in patient imaging: How 3D modeling is driving down surgery costs
Discover how an evolution in patient imaging is driving down surgery costs and supporting improved outcomes… Medical Imaging officially took off in the 1920s, almost 30 years after x-rays were first discovered. Although there were many improvements to x-ray techniques over the first half of the 20th century, early x-rays subjected patients to 50 times […]
How 3D modeling can increase operating room throughput & help reduce the backlog of surgeries caused by COVID-19
It’s no secret that COVID-19 has wreaked havoc with surgical capacity in many hospitals across the country in 2020, leading to the cancellation or deferral of millions of procedures resulting in a significant backlog of surgeries, and leaving many hospital systems across the US wondering how they can quickly and safely increase operating room throughput […]
The easy way for surgeons to get 3D printing in their NHS hospital
You’ve heard great things about 3D anatomical modeling, and perhaps you’re now wondering how to access it in your hospital, without causing too much additional work for you or your team? Fear not, there’s an incredibly easy, intuitive way for you to request a patient-specific 3D model for your next case. In order to create […]
Spine surgery in 2021: A new standard of care for surgical planning
While reading a Becker Spine article about what 2021 might look like for spine surgery, it struck me that there were a number of common views expressed by the 13 surgeons interviewed. Of course, the impact of COVID-19 was an overarching theme, both in terms of its effect on spine surgery capacity and the increased reticence of […]
Transforming parental education in pediatric surgery with 3D modeling
Even as a surgeon, 2D medical scans of a patient’s anatomy can be difficult to understand and interpret when forming a diagnosis or devising a pre-operative plan. Every physician is familiar with the scenario. The surgery has been mapped out, you’re confident in your approach but the parents are unsure whether to consent because the […]
RSNA: 3D printing and the value-add opportunity for radiology
In the lead up to RSNA, we’ve been evaluating the benefits of advancing the relationship between radiology and 3D printing. Radiology is faced with an exciting opportunity to take traditional medical imaging to the next level, improving surgical and patient outcomes. And, Axial3D is ready to address the underlying question of how to make this […]
