University of California San Francisco Give to UCSF

Do you have a CT scan you would like to convert to a 3D print?

Join Makers Lab staff to start creating 3D printable models from CT scans. Note: this pop-up will focus on converting and 3D printing models of bone. Learn how 3D printing is helping to improve medical education, research, and patient education.

What you will need: Download the 3D Slicer software prior to the pop-up, available for free for Mac and Windows. A three-button mouse is recommended, but not required.

After attending the 90-minute pop-up you will be able to:

  • Segment bone from a CT scan using a free medical image viewer
  • Create a 3D surface rendering from a CT scan
  • Prepare an STL file for 3D printing
