Ostomy Simulation for Patient Education Prior to Urologic Bowel Diversion Surgeries

The ostomy simulator is 3D printed model created in collaboration with Earl E. Bakken Medical Devices Center at the University of Minnesota. The anatomically accurate model is created by analyzing de-identified segmental imaging after bowel diversion surgeries. The Stratasys J750 Polyjet 3D Printer is utilized to create the simulator using usual synthetic material.
