Meta-biomaterials are designer biomaterials with unusual and even unprecedented
properties that primarily originate from their geometrical designs at different (usually smaller) …

In the world, one of the leading causes of death is coronary artery disease (CAD). There are
several ways to treat this disease, and stenting is currently the most appropriate way in many …

Biomaterials embody a groundbreaking paradigm shift in the field of drug delivery and
human applications. Their versatility and adaptability have not only enriched therapeutic …

This book provides a comprehensive review of the biomedical applications of biodegradable
magnesium and its alloys. It discusses the basic concepts of biodegradation mechanisms as …

Functional and mechanical properties of novel biomaterials must be carefully evaluated to
guarantee long-term biocompatibility and structural integrity of implantable medical devices …

Stent retriever thrombectomy is a pre-eminent treatment modality for large vessel ischaemic
stroke. Simulation of thrombectomy could help understand stent and clot mechanics in failed …

Coronary stents are used extensively as a minimally invasive device for unblocking
occluded coronary arteries stably. Restenosis is the re-occlusion of the artery post-stent …

Self-expanding Nitinol (nickel–titanium alloy) stents are tubular, often mesh like structure,
which are expanded inside a diseased (stenosed) artery segment to restore blood flow and …
