Journal of medical systems, 41(5), 83. DOI: 10.1007/s10916-017-0728-101485598http://hdl.handle.net/11268/6421The creation of new rapid prototyping techniques, low cost 3D printers as well as the creation of new software for these techniques have allowed the creation of 3D models of bones making their application possible in the field of teaching anatomy in the faculties of Health Sciences. The 3D model of cranium created in the present work, at full scale, present accurate reliefs and anatomical details that are easily identifiable by undergraduate students in their use for the study of human anatomy. In this article, the process of scanning the skull and the subsequent treatment of these images with specific software until the generation of 3D model using 3D printer has been reported.engjournal article10.1007/s10916-017-0728-1restricted accessImpresión tridimensionalCráneo - AnatomíaImpresiónAnatomía
