Abstract

The additive manufacturing technology has been applied in various sectors: the manufacturing of industrial components, toys, medicine, medical-surgical instruments, and tissue engineering sectors. In the tissue engineering field, it has been intensively applied to make biomaterials, organs, and drugs. The fundamental procedures of the additive manufacturing process, the various additive manufacturing techniques, and advanced methods that have been applied in the making and synthesis of organs in the tissue engineering fields have been described. In this chapter, the computer-aided tissue modelling process, different fundamental and advanced biomaterials, and advanced scaffold manufacturing applications in emerging tissue engineering fields have been illustrated.
