3D Printed Thoracic Cross Section at T6
This model is a cross-section of the thorax at the level of the T6 vertebra. Beginning posteromedially at the spinal
cord within the vertebral canal, then moving radially, the costovertebral joints of the 6th ribs are visible,
followed by several other ribs around the margin of the thoracic cavity, a pair of which unite anteriorly with the
sternum via the costosternal joints. Additionally, the oesophagus and descending aorta are visible anterior and
lateral to the T6 vertebral body, respectively.
Inside the plural space, lined by the parietal pleura,
reside the
inferior and middle lobes of the right lung and the inferior lobe of the left lung.
In the middle
mediastinum the
heart, within the pericardium, is transacted to reveal the left atrium posteriorly, then moving clockwise, the
aortic valve, right ventricle and the right atrium.

The models are very detailed and delicate. With normal production machines you cannot realize such details like shown in these models.
The printer used is a color-plastic printer. This is the most suitable printer for these models.
The plastic material is already the best and most suitable material for these prints. (The other option would be a kind of gypsum, but this is way more fragile. You even cannot get them out of the printer without breaking them).The huge advantage of the prints is that they are very realistic as the data is coming from real human specimen. Nothing is shaped or stylized.
The users have to handle these prints with utmost care. They are not made for touching or bending any thin nerves, arteries, vessels etc. The 3D printed models should sit on a table and just rotated at the table.
