Development of a 3D-printed nuchal translucency model: a pilot study for prenatal ultrasound training.

This study underscores the potential of 3D printed fetal models for enhancing ultrasound training through high inter-rater reliability, consistency across different expert levels, and cost-effectiveness. Limitations, including population variability and direct translation to clinical outcomes, warrant further exploration. The study contributes to ongoing discussions on integrating innovative technologies into medical education, offering a practical and economical method to acquire, refine and revise diagnostic skills in prenatal ultrasound. Future research should explore broader applications and long-term economic implications, paving the way for transformative advancements in medical training and practice.
