![]() At present, most of the available printing materials are rigid and therefore not optimum for flexibility and elasticity unlike biological tissue. A thorough understanding of educational needs is therefore essential in order to optimise educational value. All of these steps require time, expertise and money. This review outlines five technical steps required to complete a printed model: They include (1) selecting the anatomical area of interest, (2) the creation of the 3D geometry, (3) the optimisation of the file for the printing and the appropriate selection of (4) the 3D printer and (5) materials. Patient-specific models with anatomical fidelity created from imaging dataset have the potential to significantly improve the knowledge and skills of a new generation of surgeons. It has rapidly expanded and is now being used in health education. 3D printing is a new technology in constant evolution. ![]()
