Materialise and Siemens announced a commercial agreement to bring Materialise Mimics inPrint software to hospitals from all over the world. 
For those who do not know them, Materialise is one of the pioneers which provides 3D printing services whereas Siemens is a medical technology company.
The Mimics inPrint software
One thing is certain, 3D Printing is rapidly growing in the medical industry.
The Mimics inPrint software is a solution that will enable radiologists to print anatomical models in hospitals. It will be available through the Siemens Healthineers syngo.via open app platform.
Through a few examples, it has already been demonstrated here that adopting virtual 3D anatomical models facilitates surgical planning and collaboration between radiologists and surgical teams.
Furthermore, 3D printed anatomical models improves the patient care, as well as training and education surrounding anatomically complex pathologies.
“We believe 3D printing is going to revolutionize the medical industry and we are always looking for ways to improve accessibility of our 3D printing software to more patients and hospitals,” said Brigitte de Vet, Vice President of Medical at Materialise. “By partnering with other global healthcare leaders like Siemens Healthineers, we can do just that, and more importantly, we can further contribute to a better and healthier world.”
“By incorporating 3D technology into syngo.via, we jointly support the entire workflow from patient diagnosis to therapy planning,” said Valentin Ziebandt, Head of Marketing at the Syngo Business Line at Siemens Healthineers. “This is a cost-effective way to increase the clinical capabilities of syngo.via and an important step towards achieving personalized care and precision medicine.”
