Additive Manufacturing for Biomedical Implants and Prosthetics

This book explains usage of additive manufacturing (AM) for the printing of biomedical implants and prosthetics. It elaborates on the basics of printing biomedical implants and prosthetics, including necessity, printing processes, materials, and standards followed by discussion of involved technologies, design and optimization, and post-processing. It further highlights patient response and risks of biomedical implants, including future scope. Sustainability and environmental concerns while AM of implants and process optimization are also covered. Book highlightsProvides wide coverage of the contents related to additive manufacturing (AM) of bio-implants and prostheticsDetails fabrication details, properties, and features of fabricated implants, their testing, and characterizationDiscusses environmental issues and optimizationCovers economic implications of AM in biomedical industryIncludes dedicated chapters on Industry 4.0 interventions and sustainabilityThis book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in bioengineering, materials science, implant design, and fabrication.
