China's development in the 3D medical printing industry

<

3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing technology, originated in the United States at the end of the 19th century. At that time, the photographic sculpture and geomorphic forming technology developed in the United States later produced the 3D printing core manufacturing idea of ​​printing technology. But by the 1980s, technology was developed and promoted.

In the new century, with the development of basic research such as computer technology, materials science, and imaging technology, 3D printing has begun to be applied on a large scale. The China Internet of Things School and Enterprise Alliance called it "the thought of the last century, the technology of the last century, the market of this century."

In the medical field, with the development of precision medicine and personalized medicine, 3D printing has been widely used in the fields of implants, orthopedics, dentistry, complex surgical instruments, biological organ tissues, hearing aid housings, and pharmaceuticals.

According to Wholers' 2015 report, the proportion of medical products in downstream applications in the field of additive manufacturing in 2014 was 13.1%. In 2014, approximately 20 3D printed implants were approved by the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) for the skull, hip, knee and spine. More than 100,000 hip implants have been produced and approximately 50,000 have been applied to patients.

China currently has four products that have passed CFDA certification: 3D printed acetabular cup, 3D printed artificial vertebral body, 3D printed spinal interbody fusion cage between Aikang Medical and Beijing Medical College; Maipu medical 3D printing hard Brain (ridge) membrane patch.

On December 1, 2016, Blu-ray Inno 3D bioprinting blood vessel implanted rhesus monkey in vivo experiments were successful. As of the announcement, Blu-ray Inno has completed the in vivo implantation of 30 rhesus monkey 3D bioprinting vessels, with a survival rate of 100%.

3D technology also plays a very important role in precision surgery planning, intraoperative real-time navigation, and postoperative quantitative assessment. EDDA Technology's IQQA-3D imaging platform has more than 35,000 clinical applications.

These examples show that 3D medical printing is growing at an unprecedented rate. According to research by SmarTech Markets, the 3D printing market in the dental and medical fields is expected to reach $4.544 billion in 2020.

3D医疗打印行业之中国的发展

Before doing this topic, I thought that there would be very few domestic related companies, but this inventory of arterial network (micro signal: vcbeat) found a total of 46 companies related to 3D medical printing (due to the relationship between time and information, I believe The data we collect is not comprehensive. Please contact us if you have not included any companies or organizations.)

The business of these companies involves the sale of printers, scanners, consumables, etc., the development of bio-printing technology, and the planning of surgical solutions. Among them, 26 are involved in the whole industry, and 20 are specialized in medical printing. Most of the technical consultants of these companies are led by Lu Bingheng and Dai Kejun and their students. The 3D printing talents come from 9 universities including Tsinghua University, Xijiao University and Huazhong University of Science and Technology.
