We have been working with this technology since 2011 and we have manufactured more than 500 3D printed models for surgical planning and medical applications. We have read the original article by Allan et al. (1) with a considerable interest because the authors are investigating new clinical areas such as biliary disease .The authors found significant differences in measurements between the standard tessellation language (STL) and original computed tomography (CT) images, and also between the 3D printed models and the original CT images. %K Digestive System Diseases %K Printing, Three-Dimensional %~
