Additive Manufacturing In Medical Application,A Comparative Study Between Conventionally Made Prosthesis (Pylon) And Fused Deposition Modelling Prosthesis (Pylon)

Prosthesis is an important device in helping amputee to recover from traumatizes experience.Prosthesis is an expensive device and not all amputees afford to own one. especially in the third world country.The specialized method of fabrication and needed highly skilled technician to produce the prost...
