3D Prosthetics




OPB's Think Out Loud show

Summary: Traditional prosthetic limbs can cost up to $100,000 - but OHSU has provided 6-year-old Astoria boy Jude Rochon with new set of prosthetic hands for free, thanks to 3D printing technology. Dr. Albert Chi, an OHSU trauma surgeon and a leading expert on prosthetics, joins us to talk about working with Jude and developments in low-cost, low-tech prosthetics.
