World-First Clinical Trial: LIGŌ 3D Bioprinting Device Revolutionizes Wound Treatment Using Patient's Own Cells

• Australian biotechnology company Inventia Life Science has launched the world's first clinical trial of LIGŌ, a 3D bioprinting device that delivers patients' own cells directly to wound sites without requiring skin grafts. • The LIGŌ device works like an inkjet printer, precisely depositing nano-sized droplets of bioink containing living cells and biomaterials to create a scaffold that supports natural skin regeneration. • Future applications may extend beyond burn treatment to include skin cancer excisions, diabetic ulcers, and potentially regeneration of muscle, cartilage, and cornea tissue, promising reduced hospital stays and healthcare costs.
