From The March 18, 2014 Facebook post of Conquer Chiari Research Center

Today in the lab we are making 3D printed models of the spinal cord and brain (cerebellum). These models will be flown to a medical center in Germany next week to help us develop and test a new MRI sequence for 3D CSF flow measurement in Chiari patients. This type of MRI measurement has potential to provide the most detail about CSF motion in Chiari patients. Sincere thanks to American Syringomyelia & Chiari Alliance Project for funding this groundbreaking research.
