Commercially produced phantoms are expensive and 3D printing is becoming more cost effective. In our example, we have used a 3D-printed thoracic spine. This allows practitioners to improve their ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia needle imaging skills through deliberate practice. In this report, we describe in detail the requirements for producing a 3D-printed phantom comprising a 3D segment of thoracic spine set within a semi-solid medium. | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/17198 https://www.futuremedicine.com/doi/full/10.2217/3dp-2017-0007 |
