Cortex Revolutionises Fracture Support with 3D Printing
Tuesday, 16 June, 2015
The Cortex cast is a 3D printed, snap-fit cast that is a serious upgrade on the plaster casts we are used to. It's a breathable, lightweight, recyclable and washable fibreglass framework that protects broken bones and provides a more comfortable recovery period to the patient - free of odour, itching and restriction.
Mashable has a great video explaining the ins and outs of the revolutionary design from Jake Evill.
