Hungarian professionals reform veterinary medicine with 3D printing
We appeared on the columns of HVG: Professionals want to introduce a method into veterinarian medicine which is already used in human medicine: Making use of 3D printing, implants would be created which are customised to the animals’ unique anatomy.
A Hungarian team with veterinarian and engineering background creates anatomical models, drilling guides and implants by means of 3D modelling. Similarly to human medicine, they want to introduce personalised veterinarian medicine with the help of digital design and 3D printing.

“Earlier it was simply unimaginable that physiotherapy can be started with so much prospect.” - interview with Luca Rostás
The innovations at LimesVet can only achieve their goal together with appropriate rehabilitation, so we closely cooperate with physiotherapy experts as well. Luca Rostás, small animal physiotherapist and the CEO of Ebfizio, has helped many of our patients recover. It is also characteristic of her field that many innovations are transferred from human medicine to the treatment of small animals. According to her, the main direction is a non-coercive, cooperative, personalized and holistic approach to physiotherapy, which considers and treats the body and the problem as a whole.

Virág is a Yorkshire terrier who spent her days at a shelter (hosted by Állat és Ember Állatvédő Egyesület \[“Animal and Human” Animal Protection Association]). She could not use her left hind leg due to a congenital disorder. Doctor Seregi, one of the owners of FuzioVet Animal Hospital, was the orthopaedist at the shelter. That is how he met Virág and tried to find a solution to her problem.
