Kadavra kemikleri ve yapay kemikler, ameliyat öncesi çalışmalar gerçekleştirmek için ve eğitim amacıyla faydalanılmaktadır. Kadavra kemiklerini bulmak zordur, etik izinler gerektirir ve enfeksiyon tehlikesi barındırırlar. Bu yüzden uygulamada ticari yapay kemikler tercih edilmektedir. Bununla birlikte, bu ticari alternatif standart olarak ortalama bir boyut ve geometride üretildiğinden onları belirli bir cerrahi simülasyona uyarlamak neredeyse imkansızdır. Ayrıca, bu yapay kemikler, erişilebilirliklerini sınırlayan nispeten yüksek maliyetlere sahiptir. Diğer yandan, üç boyutlu (3B) baskı teknolojilerinden birisi olan ColorJet baskı (CJP) hızlı ve uygun maliyetli bir alternatif sunmaktadır. Fakat 3B’lu baskılı modellerin mekanik olarak yapay kemiklere uyum sağlayıp sağlayamayacağı belirsizdir. Bu çalışmada, 3B’lu baskılı kemikler ile yapay ticari kompozit kemiklerin mekanik özellikler açısından karşılaştırması gerçekleştirilmiştir. ISO5833 standardı temel alınarak basma testleri 14 baskılı ve 14 kompozit kemiklere uygulanmıştır. Gerilme-şekil değiştirme, kırılma yükü ve elastik modülü gibi mekanik özellikler hesaplanmış ve bu sonuçlar istatistik analiz yöntemlerinden birisi olan iki örnekli bağımsız t-testi kullanılarak karşılaştırılmıştır. Sonuç olarak, kemik modelleri arasında gerilme ve kırılma yük değerleri açısından anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır (sırasıyla p<0.52 ve p<0.17), ancak elastik modülü istatistiksel olarak anlamlıdır (p<0.01). Bu test sonuçları, diğer yöntemlere göre daha hızlı üretim kapasitesi bulunan bu teknolojinin yapay kemiklerle benzer dayanıklılık gösterebileceği ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Böylece hastaya özel kemik modelleri gerektiren ameliyat öncesi planlamada ve deneysel biyomekanik çalışmalarda yapay kemikler yerine 3B baskılı kemikler kullanılabilir.

The Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Commercial Composite Bones and 3D-Printed Bones Produced Using the CJP Technology

Öz

Cadaver bones and artificial bones are utilized to perform preoperative studies and education purposes. Cadaver bones are hard to find, require ethical permissions, and have infection hazards. Therefore, commercial artificial bones are preferred in practice. Nonetheless, since these commercial alternatives are standardly produced in an average size and geometry, it is almost impossible to adapt them to a specific surgical simulation. In addition, these artificial bones have relatively high costs, which limits their accessibility. On the other hand, ColorJet printing (CJP), one of the three-dimensional printing technologies, offers a rapid and cost-effective alternative. However, whether the printed 3D-printed models can mechanically comply with artificial bones is unclear. In this study, 3D-printed bones and artificial commercial composite bones were compared in terms of mechanical properties. Compression tests were applied over 14 printed and 14 composite bones using the ISO 5833 standard. Mechanical properties including stress-strain, load to failure, and elastic modulus were calculated, and these results were compared using the two-sample independent t-test, which is one of the statistical analysis methods. Consequently, there was no significant difference between the bone models in terms of stress and failure load values (p<0.52 and p<0.17, respectively), however, the elastic modulus was statistically significant (p<0.01). These test findings demonstrated that this technology, which has a faster production capacity than other methods, can show similar strength to artificial bones. Thus, 3D-printed bones can be utilized instead of artificial bones in preoperative planning, which needs patient-specific bone models, and experimental biomechanical studies.
