Fundamental Biomaterials: Metals provides current information on findings and developments of metals and their conversion from base materials to medical devices. Initial chapters analyse properties of metals followed by chapters which discuss a range of biomedical applications, with a focus on orthopaedics. The book concludes with essential information on lifetime prediction of metallic biomaterials. The book will be of use to researchers and professionals in the development stages to design more appropriate target materials, while it will also help medical researchers to understand and communicate the requirements of a biomaterial for a specific application more effectively. Further, with the recent introduction of a number of interdisciplinary bio-related undergraduate and graduate programs, this book will be an appropriate reference volume for large number of students at undergraduate and post graduate levels. This title is the second volume in a three volume set. Each of these three volumes reviews the most important and commonly used classes of biomaterials, providing comprehensive information on materials properties, behaviour, biocompatibility and applications.
