Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into the fundamental principles of biocompatibility, examining how nonliving materials interact with biological systems in medical applications. It is organized into three main sections: the response of materials to biological systems, the host's reaction to biomaterials, and various testing methods for assessing biological responses both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, it includes detailed summaries of the physical properties of widely used metallic, polymeric, and ceramic biomaterials, offering insights into their clinical performance when implanted.
