Material extrusion-based additive manufacturing of polyetheretherketone cranial implants: Mechanical performance and print quality

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is considered a ‘gold-standard’ material choice for cranial bone reconstruction. The introduction of additive manufacturing (AM) into the pipeline for patient specific cranial implant (PSCI) fabrication could accelerate supply chain needs and improve patient outcomes. Fus...
