Synopsis
Biology and engineering meet in this groundbreaking and growing discipline Biomedical engineering is an established interdisciplinary research and training area, combining various aspects of physiology, biology, materials science and engineering. Biomedical engineering programs and courses are integral parts of pertinent curricula, generating an urgent need for textbooks which can introduce this fundamental subject to new generations of students, researchers and practicing professionals. The textbook Concepts of Tissue-Biomaterial Interactions meets this need with an introduction to the subject. Beginning with various, key, fundamental concepts of cellular biology and the physiology of tissue wound healing (required to understand interactions of tissues and implants) it offers essential information and insight regarding the design of successful biomaterial implants. Concluding with a look at the current forefront and future of the field, it is an indispensable introduction for fundamental and cutting-edge aspects of biomedical engineering applications. Concepts of Tissue-Biomaterial Interactions readers will also find: Introduction to biological aspects such as cell-extracellular matrix interactions and cell-substrate interactions Details regarding various aspects of the process of normal tissue wound healing Current knowledge of tissue wound healing in the presence of implants Examples of pathological complications, including infection Design criteria for biocompatible implants The process of obtaining regulatory approval of new biomaterials and implantable medical devices by pertinent regulatory agencies Implant biomaterial and medical devices: past, present, and future Concepts of Tissue-Biomaterial Interactions is recommended for advanced undergraduate and for graduate students interested in biomedical engineering, biomaterials, tissue engineering, and implantable biomaterials/medical devices, as well as a reference for practicing biomedical engineering professionals.
