3D Systems announced the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has provided clearance for its 3D-printed, patient-specific cranial implant solution, the VSP PEEK Cranial Implant. By utilizing additive manufacturing solutions, it can produce patient-specific cranial implants with up to 85% less material than similar implants produced by traditional machining, which can lead to significant cost savings for an expensive raw material like implantable PEEK.
