Imaging Techniques in Biomaterials: Digital Image Processing Applied to Orthopaedic & Dental Implants
This volume presents the available knowledge on imaging techniques applied to biomaterials, especially in the orthopaedics field. It includes basic and practical aspects of recent techniques, with particular emphasis on the study of materials, biological tissues (including bone) and tissue/implant interfaces.Chapter 1 addresses fundamental aspects of image processing and chapter 2 the question of 3-D visualisation. In chapters 3 to 6 techniques used for the study of materials surfaces are dealt with, including digital analysis of SEM images, Auger spectroscopy, X-ray mapping, Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy, Scanning Force Microscopy. The application of imaging techniques to the study of cells, tissues and bone is covered in chapters 7 to 12, including the use of confocal scanning optical microscopy and acoustic microscopy. Chapters 13 to 22 cover the use of computer graphics in the study of joints, computer aided densitometric analysis of X-rays, computed tomography, image reconstruction for preoperative planning, prediction of bone properties by non-evasive techniques, quantitative analysis of the tissue/implant interfaces, thermoelasticity, optical pedobarography and the application to scoliotic deformities. Finally in chapter 23 the technological aspects of fabrication are dealt with including the subject of crown reconstruction by CAD/CAM.
