Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
The additive manufacturing (AM) technology is seen as a flexible manufacturing method with potential for substantial innovations to produce medical devices and instrumentation, orthoses prostheses, medical models, inert implants, and biomanufacturing. In tandem, the recent advances in biomaterials are catalyzing the clinical implications of AM-made healthcare products. Till date, more than 0.1 million technical reports have been documented in the scientific volume of the literature, and this article aims to provide a comprehensive as well as in-depth view of recent progress made in AM technologies suited for the futuristic healthcare solutions. More specifically, a critical view of three-dimensional printing, three-dimensional bioprinting, and four-dimensional printing has been presented. Our insight suggests that more advances in biomaterials are needed for the success and growth of AM technology in the healthcare industry.
