US Military my Copy and 3D Print their Soldiers' Body Parts

If you thought technology was progressing fast, this latest bit of news may surprise you even more. The US Military may soon have the technology available to create virtual copies of soldiers. Then when any of their soldiers are injured these copies could be restored and 3D printed medical models or even 3D printed implants could be created based on these replicas. This means that the soldiers will have the ability to have a 3D printed limb created eacty like the one they lost. This will provide surgeons with more information through a 3D printed model and one day soon may allow for titanium implants to replace those missing body parts.
