3D Printing in Medicine

3D Printing in Medicine is a peer reviewed open access journal publishing 3D printing innovations that impact medicine. Authors can communicate and share Standard Tessellation Language (STL) and related files via the journal. In addition to publishing techniques and trails that will advance medicine with 3D printing, the journal covers "how to" papers to provide a forum for translating applied imaging science.
