Product Description
Achieving good clinical outcomes with implanted biomaterials depends
upon achieving optimal function, both mechanical and biological, which
in turn depends upon integrating advances realized in biological
science, material science, and tissue engineering. As these advances
push back the frontiers of biomaterial medicine , the control and
patterning of bio-implant interface reactions will have a tremendous
impact on future design and prospects of implant treatments.
Bio-Implant
Interface: Improving Biomaterials and Tissue Reactions brings together a
remarkable panel of scientists to present the state-of-the-art in our
understanding of interactions at the interface between biomaterials and
living tissue. Much of the focus is on the importance of the implant
surface's topography and chemistry to its interaction with the
biological environment. Biomineralization along with the biological
content of the interface and its role in directing cellular response
along desired pathways also receive particular attention.
The
pursuit of new and better designs for improved biocompatibility and
patient response to implants continues to challenge clinicians and
scientists alike. This book offers a unique opportunity to bring
yourself up-to-date on recent advances in the field and new strategies
for controlling the bio-implant interface.
