Technology Changing Medical History



About five years ago, when someone needed a heart, kidney, ear, or even cranium transplant, they would have to wait for someone to donate it to them. This person was called a donner. It could take years and years for someone to receive this. This is a very big problem for people who need this in a matter of a couple hours in order to survive. But, recently doctors and technology experts have changed this, resulting with many survived patients.
Nowadays, the people who need organ or a physical feature on the body urgently in order to survive, they can receive this in a matter in a couple hours using 3D printing. 3D printing is just what it says in the title, it 3D prints things. You need a special printer to do so. Most hospitals worldwide have a 3D printer located in the hospital. This is a fast, efficient, and safe way of receiving an organ. So, when people’s lives that are at stake without a body part, and without someone to donate it to them, they can use a 3D printer. 3D printing has changed science technology, and many lives.
