A Critical Review on the Role of Bioprinted Tumor Models in Cancer Research
Stavan Vaghela, Dave Kaushik, Nathan Olsen
Abstract: Tumor modeling is a contemporary method of cancer research used to build tissues that are used to mimic the progression of metastasized cancerous cells. Bioprinting techniques are becoming a more common approach to generating tissues that can be used to study the course of different cancerous pathways. Recent developments in bioprinting technology have enabled improvements in research surrounding oncology, among other fields including regenerative medicine and pharmaceutical applications. This article summarizes some of the common techniques used in bioprinting and how they can be used for current and future medical applications, with a focus on its utilization in cancer research.
Keywords: Bioprinting techniques, tumor modeling, oncology, regenerative medicine, and cancer research
