![]() 3D Bioengineered Skin Grafts Fit Complex Anatomy
Medgadget - (Monday February 13, 2023) Researchers at Columbia University’s Irving Medical Center have developed a method to create three-dimensional bioengineered skin grafts. To date, bioengineered skin is typically created in flat sheets. However, these are difficult to fit to complex anatomy, such as the hand, and so these researchers have designed a more sophisticated technique that combines laser scanning, 3D printing, and cell culture to create seamless three dimensional skin grafts. For instance, the researchers have already created a skin “glove” that could be useful in replacing skin on the hands by simply slipping it over the hand (just like a glove). Replacing skin that has… ![]() An inside look at AdventHealth’s powerful telemedicine program
