  • Beschreibung: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).Bioceramics 17 is comprised of the papers presented at the 17th Annual Meeting of the International Society for Ceramics in Medicine (ISCM) held on December 8 thru 12, 2004 in New Orleans, Louisiana USA. It reports the most recent progresses made in the study of bioceramics and its application in medicine, especially in repair of bone defects. The ever-increasing impact of bioceramics is reflected within this book. There are 261 papers collected in this book covering the major topics in the field of bioceramics. These topics includes biomimetic apatite coatings, hydroxyapatite and other calcium phosphate ceramics, coatings, composites, inorganic-organic hybrids, zirconia and alumina bioceramics, bioactive glasses and glass ceramics, evaluation of bioactivity in simulated physiological solutions, cell-ceramic interactions, ceramic-tissue interaction, stability of bioceramics in the body environment, tissue engineering and scaffold materials, bone cement; drug delivery; wear and fixation of implants, surface modification, preclinical and clinical studies, dental and orthopaedic application, effect of sterilization on ceramic implants. This book is anticipated to provide valuable information for scientists, engineers, and surgeons in the study, development, manufacture, and clinical application of bioceramics
