The biomaterials technology industry is already well established in
the western world and is growing rapidly within Asian Pacific
nations. It is often described as the 'next electronics industry',
whilst the laser is described as a 'solution looking for a
problem'. This book describes the use of the laser to solve a
troublesome and costly problem in a rapidly growing global
industry. The authors have spent many years conducting research
using laser materials processing and wettability characteristics
and have perfected a technique to improve the bio-compatibility of
various bone-implant materials using laser irradiation. They have
made pioneering discoveries on the subject and established some
generic theories and principals that will have a wide range of
applications in the biomaterials field.This book: introduces
inter-disciplinary research work covering laser materials
processing and surface modification of biomaterials for enhanced
compatibility; includes highly scientific and novel research
material; serves both as a practitioner guide and a reference book;
and, covers an exciting and rapidly developing area of technology
that is of keen interest to engineers and clinicians alike. "Laser
Surface Treatment of Bio-Implant Materials" is rare in providing a
reference source that describes specifically a mechanical
engineering solution to a biotechnology problem. It serves as both
a practitioner guide and a medium to high-level reference text
book, and as such is a reference source for the engineer practising
or looking to move into the biomaterials field, undergraduate and
post graduate students and those conducting bio-related research in
either academia or industry. It will prove useful to mechanical
engineers, biotechnologists, biomechanical engineers,
metallurgists, clinicians and even surgeons.
