虽然在放射学中使用先进的可视化有助于诊断以及与转诊临床医生的沟通，但将医学数字成像和通信 (DICOM) 图像呈现为能够提供触觉反馈和有关解剖和病理状态的有形深度信息的三维 (3D) 打印模型的需求尚未得到满足。三维打印模型已经在非医学科学中根深蒂固，并且正在迅速被医学界和非医学界所接受。将放射科医生生成和解释的图像进行 3D 打印会带来特殊的挑战，包括培训、材料和设备以及指南。 3D 打印实验室的总体成本必须与临床效益相平衡。预计从 DICOM 图像生成的用于规划干预措施和制造植入物的 3D 打印模型数量将呈指数级增长。放射科医生至少应该熟悉 3D 打印，因为它与其领域相关，包括用于创建 3D 打印解剖模型的 3D 打印技术和材料的类型、迄今为止已发布的模型应用以及放射学的临床益处。本文提供在线补充材料。 (C) 北美放射学会，2015
While use of advanced visualization in radiology is instrumental in diagnosis and communication with referring clinicians, there is an unmet need to render Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) images as three-dimensional (3D) printed models capable of providing both tactile feedback and tangible depth information about anatomic and pathologic states. Three-dimensional printed models, already entrenched in the nonmedical sciences, are rapidly being embraced in medicine as well as in the lay community. Incorporating 3D printing from images generated and interpreted by radiologists presents particular challenges, including training, materials and equipment, and guidelines. The overall costs of a 3D printing laboratory must be balanced by the clinical benefits. It is expected that the number of 3D-printed models generated from DICOM images for planning interventions and fabricating implants will grow exponentially. Radiologists should at a minimum be familiar with 3D printing as it relates to their field, including types of 3D printing technologies and materials used to create 3D-printed anatomic models, published applications of models to date, and clinical benefits in radiology.
