Biomedical textiles for orthopaedic and surgical applications : fundamentals, applications and tissue engineering /
Recent concerns over the possible effects of metal-on-metal orthopaedic implants and the evolution of more natural structures made from fibre have made medical device manufacturers consider the potential of fibre. Textiles offer the potential to replace traditional materials with novel fibres which...
