Over the past few years we have witnessed growing interest in ultrafast laser micromachining of bioresorbable polymers for fabrication of medical implants and surface modification. In this paper we show that surface structuring of poly(L-lactide) with 30
This application claims priority from U.S. provisional application 61/092,360, filed Aug. 27, 2008, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates generally to medical devices, and more particularly to implantable or insertable medica...
Because most solutes can diffuse in hydrogels, they are applicable as biomaterials. The possible applications of high-performance hydrogels in the medical field include medically useful membranes, artificial organs (such as artificial articular cartilage), scaffolds for living cells and wound- dressing ...
etc. resulting in greater stiffness and higher healing efficiency in the nanocomposites. Polymeric materials are widely used in the medical field as they are easily available and cost-effective. The further use of self-healing composites provides improvement in fatigue resistance and greater tensile str...
AngelRomo-Uribe, inMaterials for Biomedical Engineering, 2019 7.1.2Shape Memory Polymers Shape memory polymers(SMPs) are one class of smart materials which can “remember” their original shape and are finding more applications into the medical field since the pioneering work ofLendlein and Langer ...
