Ternopil National Medical University has signed a cooperation agreement with MED3DRUK<\/strong>, a leading company in the field of medical 3D printing in Ukraine. This partnership marks a significant step in modernizing the training of future prosthetists and orthotists and integrating advanced additive manufacturing technologies into the educational process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For the second consecutive year, specialized training sessions have been held at the MED3DRUK laboratory<\/strong> in disciplines such as Prosthetics<\/em>, Orthotics<\/em>, Orthotics and Assistive Technologies in Pediatrics<\/em>, as well as elective courses Digitalization of the Prosthetics and Orthotics System<\/em> and Orthotics and Assistive Technologies in Geriatrics<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During training in the medical 3D printing laboratory, students master 3D scanning techniques<\/strong>, which ensure precise reproduction of a patient\u2019s anatomical shape or limb stump. Future prosthetists and orthotists also acquire skills in computer-aided design (CAD)<\/strong> and gain hands-on experience operating 3D printers<\/strong> \u2014 there are currently 15 in the laboratory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Since the 3D printing process involves the use of specialized materials such as bioplastic, nylon, and thermoplastic polyurethane<\/strong>, these topics are explored in depth within the Materials Science<\/em> course, helping students form a comprehensive understanding of the technological cycle of prosthetic and orthotic production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Today, innovative technologies \u2014 3D scanning, computer modeling, and 3D printing<\/strong> \u2014 are transforming the approach to designing prosthetic and orthotic devices, making them more precise, comfortable, and personalized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the partnership with MED3DRUK<\/strong>, TNMU students gain new opportunities for hands-on learning<\/strong> and the digitalization of prosthetic and orthotic manufacturing<\/strong>, aligning their training with current global trends in rehabilitation engineering<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
