of 3D printing technology in healthcare, estimated to<br />
grow by 18.3 per cent annually until 2020. Items on<br />
show include 3D-printed bionic limbs and real life<br />
models of 3D-printed organ models among others.<br />

care is becoming a reality, based on forward thinking<br />
groups and leaders such as Dr. Mohammad Al Redha in<br />
the Department of Organisational Transformation in<br />
the Dubai Health Authority and the adoption of 3D<br />
printing across its hospitals," said Scott Rader, GM<br />
