Researchers have developed 3D printed artificial heart valves designed to allow a patient’s own cells to form new tissue. To form these scaffolds using melt electrowriting – an advanced ...
To explore the uses of this material, [Riley] chose to make an artificial heart valve. This required a 3D-printed framework with three prongs, painted with conductive paint.
Growing into the heart. Although 3D-printed heart valves currently exist and bioresorbable materials have been used for implants before, this is the first time the two technologies have been ...

More than one in eight people aged 75 and older in the United States develop moderate-to-severe blockage of the aortic valve in their hearts, usually caused by calcified deposits that build up on the ...
Researchers at the Wyss Institute have created a novel 3D printing workflow that allows cardiologists to evaluate how different valve sizes will interact with each patient's unique anatomy, before ...
A 3D-printed heart valve, made using a biocompatible material called polyglycerol dodecanedioate, was created at Emory and Georgia Tech labs and presented earlier this month.
