Abstract
The RSNA-ACR 3D printing registry enables systematic collection of data about clinical 3D printing performed by medical centers or at the point of care. This data will facilitate efforts related to quality improvement and reimbursement. The registry includes a system of data fields, as described in a reference document known as the data dictionary. These fields collect information pertaining to 3D printing workflows, such as imaging exams, clinical indications, segmentation, computer-aided design, printing materials and technologies, and staff effort. The registry also collects information about the clinical impact of 3D printed models and guides. This chapter reviews the registry’s design and the data dictionary document. Several examples are used to illustrate the use of the registry to describe clinical cases.
