Details and patient eligibility

About

3D modeling enables medical professionals or students to better understand complex structures. In many studies, 3D printed models have been used in the training, treatment and surgery of medical disciplines such as neuroscience, cardiovascular surgery and otolaryngology. In addition, 3D modeling allows patients' magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) images to be transferred to 3D printers to print these complex structures.

3D Printed Model Group Enlarged %100

Other group

Description:

carpal bone models printed on a 3D resin printer and enlarged by 100% will be used for students' anatomy practical training. Each student will examine the models with direct manipulation for 15 minutes after the theoretical lecture.

Treatment:

Other: Anatomy Training with Enlarged %100 3D Printed Carpal Model Group

3D Printed Model Group Enlarged %50

Other group

Description:

carpal bone models printed on a 3D resin printer and enlarged by 50% will be used for students' anatomy practical training. Each student will examine the models with direct manipulation for 15 minutes after the theoretical lecture.

Treatment:

Other: Anatomy Training with Enlarged %50 3D Printed Carpal Model Group
