This book provides an in-depth review of state-of-the-art orthopaedic techniques and basic mechanical operations (drilling, boring, cutting, grinding/milling) involved in present day orthopaedic surgery. Casting a light on exploratory hybrid operations, as well as non-conventional techniques such as laser assisted operations, this book further extends the discussion to include physical aspects of the surgery in view of material (bone) and process parameters. Featuring detailed discussion of the computational modeling of forces (mechanical and thermal) involved in surgical procedures for the planning and optimization of the process/procedure and system development, this book lays the foundations for efforts towards the future development of improved orthopaedic surgery. With topics including the role of bone machining during surgical operations; the physical properties of the bone which influence the response to any machining operation, and robotic automation, this book will be a valuable and comprehensive literature source for years to come.

This volume presents the processing of the 15th ICMBE held from 4th to 7th December 2013, Singapore. Biomedical engineering is applied in most aspects of our healthcare ecosystem. From electronic health records to diagnostic tools to therapeutic, rehabilitative and regenerative treatments, the work of biomedical engineers is evident. Biomedical engineers work at the intersection of engineering, life sciences and healthcare. The engineers would use principles from applied science including mechanical, electrical, chemical and computer engineering together with physical sciences including physics, chemistry and mathematics to apply them to biology and medicine. Applying such concepts to the human body is very much the same concepts that go into building and programming a machine. The goal is to better understand, replace or fix a target system to ultimately improve the quality of healthcare. With this understanding, the conference proceedings offer a single platform for individuals and organizations working in the biomedical engineering related field to gather and network with each other in so doing create the catalyst for future development of biomedical engineering in Asia.

Comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to all aspects of dental implant maintenance, based on treatment outcomes Saving Dental Implants offers a complete reference to all factors in long-term success in dental implants. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, each chapter is written by leading experts in the field. The book examines treatment outcomes, provides advice on how to manage implants for long-term success, and supports clinicians in avoiding and managing peri-implant complications. The text presents global treatment approaches and concepts—established philosophies in practice for the last 20 years—and also looks to possible future management strategies. Designed to help clinicians apply the concepts in practice, the text also covers the pros and cons of implant therapy and the specifics of pre-implant diagnostics, treatment methodology, prosthetic concepts, and further maintenance visits. Featuring hundreds of high-quality color photographs to support the text, Saving Dental Implants covers topics such as: The anatomic features of peri-implant tissues, including clinical and histological information, and an evaluation of the studies using different implant systems and prosthetic concepts Diagnostic tools and procedures to make the proper diagnosis of peri-implant conditions, and microbiota of the peri-implant tissues and diagnostic opportunities for bacterial diagnosis Nanoparticles found in the peri-implant tissues from the implant placement, their loading, and their impact on peri-implant diseases The significance, applications, and limitations of bone grafting techniques to optimize the shape of the alveolar ridge New technologies for better treatment of peri-implant complications Examining the most current information and research on diagnosing, preventing, and managing peri-implant complications, Saving Dental Implants is a must-have practical reference for dental practitioners, specialists, and students who wish to help patients reach the best functional and esthetic outcomes.
