The safe and effective practice of surgery requires an intimate knowledge of anatomy. A thorough understanding of human anatomy empowers medical doctors to plan a suitable approach, predict possible complications, prepare necessary equipment, and properly counsel the patient. Recently, 3D printing technology has dramatically changed how we think about making things, thus it has been used for scientific discoveries to develop practical applications based on patient-specific information in real clinical medicine. However, there are practical difficulties such as long working time, various and complex work procedures, and communication delay due to participation of various experts in 3D printing work. To solve this problem, efficient convergence system is indispensable. The convergence system built on diverse knowledge bases (AI, cloud system, GPU computing technique, etc.) can bring a tremendous impact when 3D printing technology is applied at the hospital. In this lecture, we'll talk about AI-based digital workflow system for operating efficient medical 3D printing works including fundamental knowledge with various applications in clinical fields.
