There is an FDA-approved version designed for doctors reading scans in clinics and hospitals, a 64-bit version for research and other nonclinical activities, and a free, 32-bit version. Osirix is a Macintosh-only software package for reading medical imaging scans (Figure 1). The written version here has more detail though. It takes you from start to finish in 30 minutes. Video 1 : The video version of this tutorial. Download is free for members, and registration for membership is also free and only takes a minute. When you finish the tutorial, you will have your very own 3D printable skull STL file. It will be well worth your time.īefore you start, DOWNLOAD THE FILE PACK that accompanies this video so you can follow along on your own computer. Take a few minutes to look over this brief tutorial. Selecting the right kind of scan is critically important and will save you a lot of frustration. If you start your 3D printed model project with the wrong kind of scan, your model will not turn out well. If you haven't already done so, please see my tutorial on selecting the best medical scan to create a 3D printed model. If you use Windows or Linux, please stay tuned for my upcoming tutorial on using free, open-source 3D Slicer to create medical and anatomic models. This tutorial is designed primarily for Macintosh users since Osirix is a Macintosh-only program. Expensive, proprietary software is not needed.
If mastered, this material should easily allow you to make a high-quality 3D printed medical model in less than 30 minutes using free software. Once the file is converted into STL format, we will use the free software packages Blender and Meshmixer to prepare the file for 3D bioprinting. We will use the free, open-source software program Osirix to do this. In this tutorial we're going to learn how to take a DICOM-based medical imaging scan, such as a CT scan, and convert into an STL file in preparation for 3D printing. Mike here again with another tutorial and video on medical 3D printing. UPDATED TUTORIAL: A Ridiculously Easily Way to Convert CT Scans to 3D Printable Bone STL Models for Free in Minutes
