(Series in Materials Science and Engineering)
by Roger J. Narayan
"3D
bioprinting" refers to processes in which an additive manufacturing
approach is used to create devices for medical applications. This volume
considers exciting applications for 3D bioprinting, including its use
in manufacturing artificial tissues, surgical models, and orthopedic
implants.
The book includes chapters from leaders in
the field on 3D bioprinting of tissues and organs, biomedical
applications of digital light processing, biomedical applications of
nozzle-free pyro-electrohydrodynamic jet printing of buffer-free
bioinks, additive manufacturing of surgical models, dental crowns, and
orthopedic implants, 3D bioprinting of dry electrodes, and 3D
bioprinting for regenerative medicine and disease modeling of the ocular
surface.
This is an accessible reference for
students and researchers on current 3D bioprinting technology, providing
helpful information on the important applications of this technology.
It will be a useful resource to students, researchers, and practitioners
in the rapidly growing global 3D bioprinting community.
