Understand the core materials that create biomedical innovation

Some of the greatest medical advances in recent decades have come in the form of biomedical implants. Whether in the form of traditional orthopedic implants, medical devices for the cardiovascular system, or polymer-based ocular implants, biomedical implants can be lifesaving or life-transforming interventions. The biomaterials which comprise these implants are a vital area of ongoing research, but no prior volume has ever taken comprehensive stock of this subject and its growing applications.

An Overview of Biomedical Implants fills this gap with a thorough overview of all major biomaterials and their role in biomedical implants. Composed for an interdisciplinary audience, the book addresses all scales and areas of application. The result is an essential resource in this critical ongoing area of biomedical research.

An Overview of Biomedical Implants readers will also find:

  • Description of the relationship between every specific biomaterial and its role in each major implant category
  • Detailed discussion of nanoscale to molecular-scale to industrial-scale biomaterials
  • Concrete examples in every chapter, along with a list of pertinent references

An Overview of Biomedical Implants is ideal for physicians, scientists, and engineers--those working in the area of biomaterials, medical, biological and chemical and applied physics, pharmaceutical science and as a reference for professors and students in these areas.
