  3D printing has raised a lot of attention from fields outside the
manufacturing one in the last years. In this paper, we will illustrate some
recent advances of 3D printing technology, applied to the field of telemedicine
and remote patient care. The potentiality of this technology will be detailed
without lab examples. Some crucial aspect such as the regulation of these
devices and the need of some standards will also be discussed. The purpose of
this paper is to present some of the most promising applications of such
technology.
