Medical Additive Manufacturing: Concepts and Fundamentals provides an overview of the latest research in the field of additively manufactured medical materials. It starts with a broad overview of the current state of medical additive manufacturing and then dives into cutting-edge topics such as medical imaging technologies for additive manufacturing and computer-aided design principles for anatomic modeling. The chapters discuss the state of additive manufacturing in an array of medical fields such as radiology, tissue engineering, nuclear medicine, orthopedics, surgery, cardiology, neurology, optometry, obstetrics, and veterinary medicine. This book concludes with chapters discussing regulatory considerations for additive manufacturing in hospitals and what the future holds for the field.
