Abstract EN
Additive manufacturing (AM) is a disruptive technology as it pushes the frontier of manufacturing towards a new design perspective, such as the ability to shape geometries that cannot be formed with any other traditional technique.
AM has today shown successful applications in several fields such as the biomedical sector in which it provides a relatively fast and effective way to solve even complex medical cases.
From this point of view, the purpose of this paper is to illustrate AM technologies currently used in the medical field and their benefits along with contemporary.
The review highlights differences in processes, materials, and design of additive manufacturing techniques used in biomedical applications.
Successful case studies are presented to emphasise the potentiality of AM processes.
The presented review supports improvements in materials and design for future researches in biomedical surgeries using instruments and implants made by AM.
