Abstract
A possibility is to be created of achieving the diagnosis of objects which are difficult to access. To this end, an apparatus and a method are proposed for producing a model findings object, in which image data or images of an original findings object are provided. Geometry data and one or a number of values for at least one material property are obtained from this image data. The model findings object is finally printed via a 3D printing method according to the geometry data with a material according to the value or values of the at least one material property. A physician can then diagnose the model findings object in addition to the images using palpation.
