This encyclopedic reference provides exhaustive treatment of materials used in or on the human body, including collagen-based materials, ceramics, adhesives, membranes, coatings, films. Coverage is divided into two main sections, Materials and Applications, with two volumes devoted to each area. The work deals with important materials issues such as biocompatibility, tissue response, surface modification, controlled release, implant wear, and biodegradability. Exploring the varied applications, the contributors address bone repair, joint replacement, tissue response and growth, metal plates used in orthopedics, bone cements, and vascular, coronary, ocular, and dental applications.
Integrating basic science, engineering, and medical applications, this handbook provides a treatment of materials used in or on the human body - ranging from biopolymers for controlled release drug delivery systems to metal plates used in bone repair and absorbable devices such as sutures.
