Your CT scan, 3D printed.

From the CT scan of your broken wrist, your new hip or your treated aorta, we 3D-print a model for your shelf. With the plate, the screws or the stent inside.

From €39. You only pay once we've checked your scan and made your model.

What we print for you

Anything on a CT scan can become a model: from your own recovery to your dog's skull.

For learning and explaining

A real model says more than a drawing. For teachers, students, physiotherapists and doctors who want to explain something.

  • Airways, spine, pelvis or skull, life size
  • From your own scan, or from an anonymised scan from an open database
  • Multiple copies for a class or a practice
  • For learning and explaining, not for planning treatment

For your pet

Vets use CT scans more and more, after an accident or before an operation. From that scan we print your pet's bone. Dog, cat, rabbit or any other animal: it all works, as long as there's a CT scan.

  • The skull, to show off on a shelf
  • A broken leg with its plate and screws
  • The hips or elbows after an operation
  • A lasting memory of a pet that is no longer with you

Something else in mind?

Your skull after surgery, your heart, your airways… Describe what you'd like; we'll check whether your scan is suitable.

You need: usually a CT.

Ask us

The images are 3D renderings of real CT scans from an open research dataset (TotalSegmentator, Wasserthal et al. 2023, CC BY 4.0 licence). The aneurysm, the renal arteries and the stent were added digitally.

How it works

  1. Choose your model

    Choose what we print and how big. You immediately get a personal order page.

  2. Send your scan

    Ask the hospital for a copy of your CT scan and upload it. Your name is erased from it on your own device, before it is sent. Posting a CD or USB stick works too.

  3. We make your model

    We check your scan and build your 3D model from it. Only when that has worked do we ask you to pay.

  4. Receive your print

    We print, finish and ship. Usually within ten working days of your payment.

Your scan stays yours

A scan says a lot about your health. So we handle it with care.

  • Your scan is stored on our own server in Belgium, not in a cloud.
  • Your name, date of birth, address and the hospital's details are erased from the files on your own device, before they are sent. On our server we check this a second time.
  • We use your scan only for your model. No advertising, no reselling, no software training.
  • After shipping, we erase your scan. Read everything in the privacy statement.

Questions

How do I get my scan?

Ask the hospital where the scan was made for a copy, usually at the imaging department or through the patient portal. You'll get a CD, a USB stick or a download link. As a patient, you have the right to a copy of your medical record.

Which scan do I need?

A CT scan. A plain X-ray or an ultrasound isn't enough. For an aorta with a stent, the follow-up scan after treatment is ideal. Not sure? Order and upload your scan: we check it first.

What if my scan isn't suitable?

We'll let you know and you pay nothing. We erase your scan straight away.

Is the model life size?

With Small and Medium, your model is as big as that size allows; a wrist, ankle or jaw is then often already life size. For a larger body part at true scale, choose ‘Life size or custom’: we look at your scan and send you a price.

Can my doctor use the model?

To explain something, gladly. But our models are keepsakes, not medical devices: don't use them to make a diagnosis or plan an operation.

Can I give a model as a gift?

Yes. The scan must come from the person themselves, or with their permission.

Do you do animals too?

Yes. Ask your vet for the CT scan and choose ‘Your pet’. Any animal works, as long as there's a CT scan. This also works for a pet that has died, if a scan was made.

Can I just have my own skull printed?

Yes, no fracture or surgery needed. Ask the hospital for the CT scan of your head and choose ‘Your skull, jaw or face’.

I don't have a scan. Can you still make a teaching model?

Yes. For anatomy teaching models we use anonymised scans from open databases that may be used for this purpose. Tell us what you're looking for and how many copies you need.

Have a CT scan? Then we can print it.
