This includes a range of ceramics, polymers and metallic materials for implants and medical devices. A major question is how these materials will perform inside the body, which is very sensitive to alien materials.Series on biomaterials and bioengineering ;v. 3.Biomedical materialsBiomedical engineeringImplants, ArtificialProsthesisElectronic books.Biomedical materials.Biomedical engineering.Implants, Artificial.Prosthesis.610.28Batchelor A.
