Entry #15: 3-D Blood Vessels

A Chinese company called Revotek has recently released the world's first 3-D blood vessel printer. It uses stem cells to build whatever vessel is needed according to what is specified. This same system can also potentially be used to print livers, kidneys, and other organs.

This revolution could save a lot of lives once the technology is done. Lots of people die all the time because of lack of organs that are needed. Also if new blood vessels could be made then people could live longer if they replace their failing or cholesterol filled arteries with new ones.
