Developing the method of fabricating lifelike artificial organs was a process of trial and error and began more than two years ago when Ghazi, a urological surgeon and educator, was introduced to Stone who has a background in engineering, a passion for developing new medical devices, and, most importantly, access to a 3D printer.

The process begins with images obtained from MRI, CT, or ultrasound scans into computer-assisted designs (CAD). Instead of using these designs to create rigid plastic replicas of human anatomy, which was already being done in many other places, the pair instead converted the CADs of organs into molds, or negatives, which were built using a 3D printer. In a process akin to casting a bronze statue, the molds are then injected with a hydrogel which, after freezing, assumes a solid state.

When it comes to endocrine system and blood relationship, it regulates how much of a hormone is secreted. It varies from situation to situation as blood already depends on how much there are hormones in blood or concentration of any other substance in the blood. There are numerous factors that affect hormone level in blood, like stressing too much, certain diseases and infections, as well as changes in minerals and other substances in blood,

Immune system and blood are also in a very important relationship, as immune system includes white blood cells. There are also found many different substances like chemicals and proteins, like anti bodies and interferon. Some of the mentioned terms have a role to immediately protect immune system by attacking foreign things in our bodies, like bacteria, viruses, many diseases, infections and others.
