Monitoring and Evaluation of Biomaterials and Their Performance In Vivo provides essential information for scientists and researchers who need to assess and evaluate performance, monitor biological responses, gauge efficacy, and observe changes over time. Crucially, it also enables the optimization of design for future biomaterials and implants. This book presents readers with comprehensive coverage of the topic of in vivo monitoring of medical implants and biomaterials.
Part One. Monitoring and evaluation of the mechanical performance of biomaterials in vivo 1. Nanostructured ceramics 2. Monitoring degradation products and metal ions in vivo Part Two. Monitoring and evaluation of the biological response to biomaterials in vivo 3. Imaging biomaterial-associated inflammation 4. Monitoring fibrous capsule formation 5. Monitoring biomineralization of biomaterials in vivo 6. Measuring gene expression changes on biomaterial surfaces Part Three. Monitoring and evaluation of functional biomaterial performance in vivo 7. Monitoring and tracking metallic nanobiomaterials in vivo 8. High-resolution imaging techniques in tissue engineering 9. Magnetic resonance imaging monitoring of cartilage tissue engineering in vivo 10. Noninvasive optical imaging of stem cell differentiation in biomaterials using photonic crystal surfaces
