Try It Yourself: VR, AR & 3D Printing at Mayo Clinic
Join 3D printing expert Amy Alexander as she showcases the use of AR and VR apps in Mayo Clinic’s Department of Radiology in their advanced anatomic modeling laboratory. Learn about the 510(k)-cleared applications, 3D surface scanners and 3D printers used by Mayo Clinic at the point of care. Amy also explores the manner in which radiological data like CT or MRI imaging can be segmented to isolate anatomies and pathologies of interest in order to achieve segmentation that can be converted into digital 3D mesh for display in VR or AR or for print via 3D technology. “Try-it-yourself” app download instructions are included in the presentation.

The Industrialist Dilemma: How Market-Leading Companies Face the Challenges of IoT & Digital Product Development
As software disciplines and digital platforms become the source of market innovation and product differentiation, traditional medical manufacturing companies are increasingly threatened by emerging competitors and internal competency gaps. Jim VanderMey shares case studies and content from his collaboration with Rob Siegel of Stanford’s Graduate School of Business to help identify changes that need to be addressed by market-leading companies in the beginning phase of digital or IoT development. He puts special emphasis on building connected medical products that people will buy and use (avoiding the digital novelty syndrome) and avoiding common pitfalls that reduce velocity, lead to public failures or create unsustainable business models.
