Monitoring and Evaluation of Biomaterials and their Performance In Vivo

Monitoring and Evaluation of Biomaterials and Their Performance In Vivo provides essential information for scientists and researchers who need to assess and evaluate performance, monitor biological responses, gauge efficacy, and observe changes over time. Crucially, it also enables the optimization of design for future biomaterials and implants. This book presents readers with comprehensive coverage of the topic of in vivo monitoring of medical implants and biomaterials. Contains a specific focus on monitoring and evaluation of biomaterials in vivoMulti-faceted coverage of materials function and performanceFocuses on a range of implants and subsequent bodily reactions INDICE: Part 1 Monitoring and evaluation of the mechanical performance of biomaterials in vivo 1.
