Identify the acini in the image below. (Can you identify the pancreatic islet that
secretes insulin, glucagon, & other hormones? We studied the islets in the endocrine
system). Add to the drawing several ducts surrounded by collagenous protein fibers.
Explain why Stereolithography (SLA) printing is better than fused deposition modelling (FDM) to print a medical scaffold made out of TPU to surgically implant arounf the pancreas for diabetic patients.
