| About this book | ||
Fundamentals
of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine provides a complete overview
of the recent state of art in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine.
Tissue engineering has grown tremendously during the last decade. Advances
in genetic medicine and stem cell technology have significantly improved
the potential to influence cell and tissue performance and have recently
expanded the field towards regenera-tive medicine. During the last years
a number of approaches are used routinely in daily clinical practice,
others have been introduced in clinical studies whereas a multitude are
in the preclinical testing phase. There is a need to comprehensively provide
detailed information for reserchers and clinicians on this rapidly expanding
field. The book offers in one volume the prerequisites of a comprehensive
understanding of the basic principles of cell and tissue growth, the approaches
to applicate tissue enginnering techniques, as well as the clinical use
in all different medical specialities, written by specialists of each
discipline. One special focus is given on molecular and genetic treatment
options, since these therapeutic options have seen the fastest growing
advances. Additionally, as the clinical use of tissue engineering and
regenerative medicine strategies in the various disciplines are described
in detail, the book serves clinicians with timely information needed in
recent practice. |
