UNC School of Medicine’s Austin Rose, MD, associate professor of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery and Ola Harrysson, PhD, professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering at NC State University created 3D-printed models of temporal bones to be used for surgical simulation in pediatric patients and for patients with abnormal anatomy.

“The group authored an article about the surgical simulation, “Pre-operative simulation of pediatric mastoid surgery with 3D-printed temporal bone models,” in the journal International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology in March 2015. In February 2015, Annals of Otology, Rhinology, and Laryngology published a paper, “Multi-material 3D Models for Temporal Bone Surgical Simulation,” related to the creation of a model that incorporates hard and soft structures in a 3D model.”
