What This Guy Did To His Heart Will Freak You Out

#1

Medical technology is advancing day by day with the speed me and you cannot imagine and it looks like the day is not far when our health is managed by an army of nanobots living inside our bodies. But in the meantime, 3D printed organs are the next big trend in the world.

While you won't be able to print them at home, what you can do on your own is make 3-D scaled replicas of your organs. Of course, these aren't as impressive (or useful) as the real thing, but they are pretty cool.

A guy came up with this weird idea that he should get the his heart 3D printed. He did that by using data from his recent MRI to create this 3D printed model of his heart.

Guess what, you can do this too. You will need a baseline of technical know-how to get it done, though. All you have to do is to request a copy of the raw data from your MRI, render it using specialized software, and send it to your 3-D printer.

Currently, the result you can see is not pretty much detailed but the way technology is taking over will dramatically increase the quality of these plastic organs. It's just a matter of time...
