New technological techniques in the School of Medicine and University Hospital

There are interns in groups of the School of Medicine involved with this project

In today's world, the so-called “manufacturing technologies by addition” or 3D printing also called rapid prototyping, have transcended the borders of almost all fields of science, and the Faculty of Medicine together with the University Hospital & #8220; Dr. José Eleuterio González & #8221; They are not left behind.

The Guillermo Elizondo Riojas, DSc; Jefe del Departamento de de Radiología e Imagen, es alguien con una visión científica del mundo y un acervo literario e intelectual que lo hace único y un trato de calidez humana hacia sus pacientes, con todo esto ha logrado poner en marcha la técnica 3D.

& #8220; The first purpose for the use of technology is for an educational purpose, for students, since it is easier for them to understand the anatomy and study of the human body & #8221 ;, commented the doctor.

“De igual manera, ayuda a los pacientes a tener un mejor entendimiento con relación a algún estudio realizado, extirpación de tumor, y que exista un círculo de comunicación e información entre, doctor, estudiante, paciente, y familiar, es decir ganamos todos”, agrego.

& #8220; Within the clinical area, the surgeon has a greater idea of how a tumor can spread to other parts, helping to prepare better before entering surgery & #8221 ;, he added.

The importance of applying these technologies in medicine lies in allowing the reproduction of a tissue or organ through the use of bioprinting, which is expected to have a transcendent impact on multiple medical specialties (reconstructive plastic surgery, maxillofacial surgery, orthopedics, surgery spine, arthroscopy, transplant surgery, among many others). 

The Guillermo Elizondo Riojas, DSc; Secretario Académico de la Licenciatura de Médico Cirujano y Partero, finalizó haciendo la más cordial invitación a la exposición próxima en el mes de marzo, sobre el trabajo y evolución de la impresión en 3D, que se ha venido haciendo, junto con otros residentes.
