Artificial Intelligence and 3d-Printing Medical Innovations and Their Media Coverage

This article examines the application of artificial intelligence and 3D-printing technologies in modern medicine, particularly in craniomaxillofacial reconstruction. Drawing on the author's research experience — an AI-based algorithm for predicting osteonecrosis risk and patient-specific 3D-printed prosthetics for treating jawbone defects arising from post-COVID-19 complications — the practical significance of such innovations is demonstrated. The article also highlights the growing role of collaboration between media professionals and medical researchers in communicating these complex scientific advances to the public in a clear and trustworthy manner, offering constructive approaches to effective science communication.
