"Additive Manufacturing of Biomaterials" helps readers to understand the development of additive manufacturing of biomaterials: the latest advances and applications, and future potential, in the fields of patient care, research and the biomaterials industry. Case studies on specialized topics are described and readers are provided with the information they need to understand in order to design, fabricate and test additive manufacturing biomaterials for a variety of applications. Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is a rapidly developing technology that is revolutionizing the way we design and manufacture products. AM technologies allow for the creation of complex shapes and structures that would be impossible to produce using traditional manufacturing methods. AM technologies are particularly well-suited for the fabrication of biomaterials, as they allow for the creation of custom-designed devices and implants that are tailored to the specific needs of individual patients. "Additive Manufacturing of Biomaterials" provides a comprehensive overview of the topic – the technologies and potential applications.
