Our new paper on Augmented Reality and 3D printing for Microtia reconstruction is already available!
Microtia is a congenital malformation of the auricle that affects approximately 4 of every 10,000 live newborns. Radiographic film paper is traditionally employed to bidimensionally trace the structures of the contralateral healthy ear in a quasi-artistic manner. Anatomical points provide linear and angular measurements. However, this technique proves time-consuming, subjectivity-rich, and greatly dependent on surgeon… Continue reading Our new paper on Augmented Reality and 3D printing for Microtia reconstruction is already available!
