Webinar
Engineering at the Point of Care with 3D Printing
About this webinar
Each year, over 1.3 million patients from all US states and more than 150 countries are seen at one of the Mayo Clinic facilities, known for its highly specialized medical care. Many of them are referrals from other hospitals. Join us in this webinar as Ms. Amy Alexander gives key insights into how to successfully implement 3D printing at the point of care using Mimics Innovation Suite. Moreover, they highlight the newest features of the image-based 3D medical software that enabled Mayo Clinic to advance the planning workflow.
