A team of biomedical engineering students at King's College London has developed highly realistic artificial organs, called "anthropomorphic phantoms," to transform surgical training and medical device testing. Using patient scans and custom-engineered materials like polymers, rubbers, and hydrogels, Peach Simulators creates 3D organ models that mimic human tissue, allowing trainee surgeons to practice safely without relying on cadavers or animals. The models also support testing of AI-driven medical tools and new technologies, offering an ethical, cost-effective, and long-lasting alternative for medical education.<br />#UK #organs #apt
