Written by respected experts in the field, Biomaterials in Orthopedics discusses bioabsorbable biomaterials for bone repair, nondegradable materials in orthopaedics and delivery systems.
Topics in this text include biocompatibility and the biomaterial/tissue interface; self-reinforced bioabsorbable devices and guided regeneration; bone substitutes, including porous ceramics; and non-corrosive coatings for implants.
