Biomedical Devices: Design, Prototyping, and Manufacturing features fundamental discussions of all facets of materials processing and manufacturing processes across a wide range of medical devices and artificial tissues.
Represents the first compilation of information on the design, prototyping, and manufacture of medical devices into one volume
Offers in-depth coverage of medical devices, beginning with an introductory overview through to the design, manufacture, and applications
Features examples of a variety of medical applications of devices, including biopsy micro forceps, micro-needle arrays, wrist implants, spinal spacers, and fixtures
Provides students, doctors, scientists, and technicians interested in the development and applications of medical devices the ideal reference source

There has been an increasing demand for biomedical devices including various instruments,
apparatuses, implants, in vitro reagents, and similar articles to diagnose, prevent,
or treat diseases, improve human health, prolong human life, and recover from
serious injuries. Biomedical devices that we utilize are not only continuously getting
smaller and more effective but are also designed with more customized functionalities.
In response to that demand, new design innovations, new materials, and prototypes
of novel medical devices have been introduced on a regular basis. Design,
prototyping, and manufacturing techniques for these materials and designs have also
been continuously developing in parallel to the needs in biomedical device demands.
There have been a large number of books written about design and manufacturing
of various products but biomedical device manufacturing remains less covered than
other well-known microelectronics and consumer products.
This book brings authors from institutions around the world, perhaps one of the
few wide-ranging books on manufacturing processes for medical devices with coverage
of various materials including metals and polymers. The book aims to reach
audiences such as practicing engineers who are working in medical device industry,
students in the biomedical device manufacturing courses, and faculty/researcherswho
are conducting research in medical device design, prototyping, and manufacturing.
Chapter 1, written by Joaquim De Ciurana, Tu˘grul Özel, and Lidia Serenó, provides
an introduction with classification and regulation specification about medical
devices with sample manufacturing processes and applications. Chapter 2, prepared
by Inés Ferrer Real, Jordi Grabalosa, Alex Elias-Zuniga, and Ciro Rodriguez, summarizes
design issues and methodologies applicable to well-known medical device
prototypes. Chapter 3, prepared by Karen Baylón, Elisabetta Ceretti, Claudio Giardini,
and M. Luisa Garcia-Romeu, describes the issues in modeling and analysis for forming processes along with the comparison of different modeling approaches.
Chapter 4, prepared by Tu˘grul Özel, Joaquim De Ciurana, Daniel Teixidor, and Luis
Criales, describes some of the manufacturing processes based on laser processing
with several examples for medical devices. Chapter 5, prepared by Tu˘grul Özel, Elisabetta
Ceretti, Thanongsak Thepsonthi, and Aldo Attanasio, discusses machining
applications and manufacturing processes to be used for medical devices made out of
metals and plastics. Extrusion- and inkjet-based processes and applications are presented
in Chapter 6, which was prepared by KarlaMonroy, Lidia Serenó, Joaquim De
Ciurana, Paulo Jorge Bártolo, Jorge Da Silva, Marco Domingos, Corrado Paganelli,
Marino Bindi, Laura Laffranchi, Domenico Dalessandri, Stefano Salgarello, Antonio
Fiorentino, Giuseppe Vatri, and Arne Hensten prepared the Chapter 7 on certification
of medical devices.
