The Ricoh 3D for Healthcare Innovation Studio, a collaboration with digital services company Ricoh, will be located in Winston-Salem’s Innovation Quarter. The facility will use medical images to manufacture patient-specific anatomical models for presurgery planning and patient education.

“This partnership allows our health system and medical school to continue to elevate our clinical, research and education capabilities, and opens up new opportunities to collaborate with other departments across our organization and with clinicians across the Atrium Health system,” said Christopher Whitlow, MD, PhD, professor and chair of radiology at Winston-Salem-based Wake Forest University School of Medicine and a neuroradiologist at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist, in a June 4 statement.

The 3D printing studio will also be offered to startups and entrepreneurs located in the innovation district, which is anchored by Wake Forest University School of Medicine.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
