Oncology

In oncology, not only do problems with swallowing and chewing occur, but also individual smell and taste loss. Radiation destroys the taste buds, eliminating the taste of food and therefore the appetite. For each person, the taste loss can be analyzed and the 3D printed food can be tailored to personal needs. Twenty-four different taste-determining additives can be administered. This can be done in such a quantity that a person still can experience a certain taste.
