Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a high performing thermoplastic that has established itself as a ‘gold-standard’ material for cranial reconstruction. Traditionally, milled PEEK patient specific cranial implants (PSCIs) exhibit uniform levels of smoothness (excusing suture/drainage holes) to the touch (
