Case Study: Clarkson College achieves innovative 3D printing education and enhanced patient care with Stratasys Digital Anatomy

Clarkson College Develops Unique 3D Printing Education Program Powered by Stratasys Digital Anatomy Technology

Clarkson College in Omaha, Nebraska, sought to expand access to clinical 3D printing education and patient-specific surgical models beyond traditional hospital hubs. To build a Medical 3D Printing and Training Center and a certification program for radiologic technologists, Clarkson College needed technology that could produce anatomically realistic, biomechanically accurate models for pre-surgical planning and patient education—so they turned to Stratasys and its Digital Anatomy technology.

Using Stratasys Digital Anatomy printers and materials (e.g., Vero series and BoneMatrix), Clarkson College launched a hands-on curriculum and a 3D print lab serving students, surgeons, hospital partners and patients worldwide. The Stratasys-powered program enabled surgeons to rehearse procedures, helped reduce operating-room time, anesthesia and costs, improved patient consent and compliance, and provided patient-specific models for clinical, educational and legal applications.
