    CHICAGO, IL, February 12, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- By popular request, the Medical Device and Diagnostic Intellectual Property and Patent Strategy Conference will offer an in-depth look at the impact of 3D printing on Medical Device and Diagnostic industries and address strategies for protecting intellectual property related to 3D printing.

The new session, titled "The Innovative World of 3D Printed Medical Devices, IP and FDA Considerations -- What You Need to Know" will focus on the regulatory challenges of the FDA and technical issues that 3D printing poses to the FDA, despite numerous submissions for both traditional and patient-matched devices.
