METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FABRICATING OBJECT FEATURING PROPERTIES OF A BLOOD VESSEL

Abstract:

A tubular structure fabricated by additive manufacturing from non-biological building material formulations, and featuring an elongated core, a shell encapsulating the core and an intermediate shell between the core and the shell. Each of the core, the shell and the intermediate shell is made of a different material or a different combination of materials. Both the core and the intermediate shell are sacrificial. Additive manufacturing of the tubular structure is usable for fabricating an object featuring properties of a blood vessel.
