FDM technology for the prototyping of polymer stents

Fused deposition modelling (FDM) technology allows the use of a wide range of thermally processable biocompatible or biodegradable polymers. Biomedical research is currently focusing on the development of 3D printed stents that can be biodegradable, as well as drugeluting. In this proof-of-concept s...
