There are currently around 1,780 people in Poland waiting for an organ transplant. Of these, at least several dozen are waiting for an emergency procedure. Until recently, the only possible solution to improve the health of this population group was to obtain organs from a potential donor. However, the media is increasingly reporting on innovations in 3D printing of organs.

At what stage of development is the market for taiwan phone code 3D printing in medicine and will organ printing be a simple process in the future? Or will we see organs created using this technique on the shelves of shops?


Tissue engineering: what is it really?

Tissue engineering is a field of science that deals with the application of medical and
material engineering knowledge to produce substitutes for damaged organs and tissues. Early efforts to
repair bodily defects were already being made in the time of the ancient Egyptians, who believed in the life of the human body
and cared greatly about the integrity of the body. Archaeological research has shown that even then
dentures, for example, were still being produced. However, the term tissue engineering itself was not coined until 1988
at a meeting of the National Science Foundation. In the 1990s, there was a wave of
research to develop substitutes for almost all organs, and numerous
innovations, which marked a milestone for the medical 3D printing market.
