Ukuprintwa kwe-3D, ngakumbi iitekhnoloji ezinokunikezela kakhulu kwicandelo lezonyango, ikhula ngokuxhumaxhuma kunye nemida, ubungqina bento endikutshoyo unayo, kude kube kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo into efana nale ndifuna ukukuxelela yona namhlanje ibingathetheki ngokoqobo, a intliziyo eyenziwe 3D yoshicilelo, Yenziwe liqela labaphandi IYunivesithi yase-ETH Zurich (Swizalend), ebikwazi ukusebenza kangangesithuba semizuzu engama-30 ukuya kwengama-40.
Ngokubhekisele kwintliziyo onokuyibona kwiscreen, kufanele kuqatshelwe ukuba ngumzekelo, njengoko unokuthelekelela, ubungakanani obulinganayo nentliziyo yomntu kunye a ubunzima obufanayoIigram ezingama-390. Ukuze yenziwe, njengoko kutyhilwe liqela labaphandi, kuye kwasetyenziswa ubuchule bokulahla i-wax.
Le projekthi isuka kwiYunivesithi yase-ETH yaseZurich ikwazile ukubonisa ukuba, ngokuprinta i-3D, amalungu anje ngentliziyo esebenzayo esebenzayo inokwenziwa.
Ngamazwi e Amaqela kaNicholas, Umfundi wobugqirha kwi-ETH Zurich:
Olu yayiluvavanyo olunokwenzeka. Injongo yethu yayingekokubonisa intliziyo elungele ukumiliselwa, kodwa yayikukucinga ngomgaqo omtsha wophuhliso lweentliziyo ezingezizo.
Njengeenkcukacha zokugqibela, qaphela ukuba le ntliziyo, njengemodeli yokwenyani ngokupheleleyo, ine-ventricle yasekunene nasekhohlo eyahlulwe ligumbi esebenza njengesihlunu kwilungu. Ukusebenza kwayo kulula njengokuba, xa igumbi lifakwe umoya kwaye licocekile ngumoya oxinzelelweyo, liyakwazi ukumpompa ulwelo ngaphandle kwamagumbi. Ukuba ufuna iinkcukacha ezithe kratya, ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo ividiyo echanekileyo ekuqaleni kongeniso olwandisiweyo inokuba luncedo olukhethekileyo ekuqondeni konke oku.
