Biomaterials, artificial organs and tissue engineering (With CD ROM) - Softcover
This book and collection of illustrated CD lectures summarizes how maintaining quality of life in an aging population is being achieved by the development of specialty biomaterials, devices, artificial organs, and in vitro growth of human cells as tissue engineered constructs.
Following an introduction to living and man-made materials, the text discusses clinical applications of biomaterials and devices, summarizes the bioengineering principles and materials used in artificial organs, and presents the concepts and applications of tissue engineering. It concludes with the complex socio-economic factors involved in technology-based healthcare. Each chapter is supplemented with illustrated PowerPoint lectures and study questions on a CD.

constructs.
Biomaterials, Artificial Organs and Tissue Engineering is intended for use
as a textbook in a one semester course for upper level BS, MS and Meng
students. The 25 chapters are organized in 5 parts: Part 1 provides an
introduction to living and man-made materials for the non-specialist; Part
2 is an overview of clinical applications of various biomaterials and
devices; Part 3 summarises the bioengineering principles, materials and
designs used in artificial organs; Part 4 presents the concepts, cell
techniques, scaffold materials and applications of tissue engineering; Part
5 provides an overview of the complex socio-economic factors involved in
technology based healthcare, including regulatory controls, technology
transfer processes and ethical issues. Each chapter is supplemented with
illustrated Power Point lectures and study questions in an easy to use CD
to aid the reader in self-paced instruction.
