Corrosion casting is the technique by which a solid, negative replica is created from a hollow anatomical structure and liberated from its surrounding tissues. For centuries, different types of hardening substances have been developed to create such casts, but nowadays, thermosetting polymers are mostly used as casting medium. Although the principle and initial set-up are relatively easy, producing high-quality casts that serve their intended purpose can be quite challenging. This paper evaluates some of the more popular casting resins that are currently available and provides a step-by-step overview of the corrosion casting procedure, including surface casts of anatomical structures. Hurdles and pitfalls are discussed, along with possible solutions to circumvent them, based on personal experience by the authors.
腐蚀铸型技术是一种从空心解剖结构制作固体负性复制品并将其从周围组织中分离出来的技术。几个世纪以来,人们开发了不同类型的硬化物质来制作这种铸型,但如今,热固性聚合物大多被用作铸型介质。尽管原理和初始设置相对简单,但制作出能达到预期目的的高质量铸型可能颇具挑战性。本文评估了目前一些较常用的铸型树脂,并逐步概述了腐蚀铸型制作过程,包括解剖结构的表面铸型。作者根据个人经验讨论了其中的障碍和陷阱,以及规避这些问题的可能解决方案。
