This new book is the first of its kind to characterize the host implant interface at both the basic science and clinical level. The book defines the interactions of various cell types with a variety of biomaterials by discussing the basic science of these interactions. This study is important because in today's world of bionics, implantable devices represent a major component of medical practice. They are associated with significant cost and substantial benefit to many patients and morbid complications for many others. Advances in biotechnology promise to lead to the development of artificial prosthetic organs in the near future, compounding this already complex milieu. Implantation Biology enumerates the clinical applications of biomaterials from the surface viewpoint in multiple disciplines. It provides the reader with an historical perspective of the evolution of these clinically utilized biomaterials, as well as an important look at future directions in biomaterials and artificial organs research. Chapters are written by internationally respected experts in their fields and offer both a comprehensive review of biomaterial sciences and a unique specialty-by-specialty analysis of clinical applications.
