Despite recent advances in medical devices using other materials,
metallic implants are still one of the most commercially
significant sectors of the industry. Given the widespread use of
metals in medical devices, it is vital that the fundamentals and
behaviour of this material are understood. Metals in biomedical
devices reviews the latest techniques in metal processing methods
and the behaviour of this important material. Initial chapters
review the current status and selection of metals for biomedical
devices. Chapters in part two discuss the mechanical behaviour,
degradation and testing of metals with specific chapters on
corrosion, wear testing and biocompatibility of biomaterials. Part
three covers the processing of metals for biomedical applications
with chapters on such topics as forging metals and alloys, surface
treatment, coatings and sterilisation. Chapters in the final
section discuss clinical applications of metals such as
cardiovascular, orthopaedic and new generation biomaterials. With
its distinguished editor and team of expert contributors, Metals
for biomedical devices is a standard reference for materials
scientists, researchers and engineers working in the medical
devices industry and academia.
