3D Printing in ENT Training: Current State-of-the-Art and Perspectives
Maedica（2024）
Abstract
OBJECTIVES:Three-dimensional (3D) printing has been incorporated into medical research and numerous applications have been reported since its development in the 1980s. Ear, nose and throat (ENT) surgery is one of the fields that 3D printing is gaining increasing popularity, as it can contribute to surgical training, patient education and bioengineering. This article aims at providing an updated review of 3D printed models applications in improving ENT trainees' surgical skills. METHODS:A structured literature search in the PubMed database was conducted followed by a narrative synthesis of articles that met the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS:Several publications have studied the potential benefits of 3D printed models in Rhinology, Otology, Paediatric ENT and Laryngology. The major advantage is the low cost and quick production of customized models or trainers, according to the needs of the user. CONCLUSION:The available literature demonstrates the rapid expansion of 3D printing applications in ENT training. Hopefully in the near future, technological advances and more precise designing will allow the production of high fidelity and lower-cost models in any part of the world.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
