Graphical representation of the capabilities of several bioprinting techniques discussed in this work, regarding the throughput and resolution: digital light processing (DLP), stereolithography (SLA), extrusion bioprinting (EBP), melt electrowriting (MEW), multiphoton lithography (MPL), and volumetric printing (VP). With both MPL and EW, features within the scale of cells and smaller can be produced, allowing it to control the microenvironment at the cellular level. However, these techniques are limited in their throughput to a few mm³ h⁻¹. DLP, SLA, VP, and EBP enable the realization of constructs of several cm³ with a minimal feature size in the range of capillaries, cell spheroids, or blood vessels. Acell‐shaped datapoint indicates studies that involved cell encapsulation during printing. Adapted with permission.^[ ¹⁰¹ ^] Copyright 2023, Elsevier.
