A review of the methods used to study biocompatibility of Portland cement-derived materials used in dentistry [PDF]

, 2006
Advanced restorative dentistry may necessitate the need for surgical intervention to the infected root apex. Once access to the root end is achieved, the root apex is resected and filled with a dental restorative material.

The biocompatibility of titanium in a buffer solution: compared effects of a thin film of TiO2 deposited by MOCVD and of collagen deposited from a gel [PDF]

, 2007
This study aims at evaluating the biocompatibility of titanium surfaces modified according two different ways: (i) deposition of a bio-inert, thin film of rutile TiO2 by chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD), and (ii) biochemical treatment with collagen gel,

Implementation of needle‐tracking technology for real‐time transrectal ultrasound‐guided interstitial gynecological HDR brachytherapy: A feasibility study

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the feasibility of adapting a commercial prostate biopsy system for transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)‐guided hybrid gynecological (GYN) high‐dose‐rate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT). Leveraging 3D‐TRUS and MR image fusion, the prototype system aims to improve real‐time needle placement accuracy.

A Novel Restorative Pulmonary Valve Conduit: Early Outcomes of Two Clinical Trials

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Objectives: We report the first use of a biorestorative valved conduit (Xeltis pulmonary valve–XPV) in children. Based on early follow-up data the valve design was modified; we report on the comparative performance of the two designs at 12 months post ...

Spatiotemporal Control Over Protein Release from Artificial Cells via a Light‐Activatable Protease

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Stimulus‐responsive protein release is essential for intercellular communication. Mimicking this functionality in artificial cells is promising to study the working principles of cellular signaling. Herein, an engineered light‐activatable protease is implemented in a coacervate‐based artificial cell platform to establish user‐defined spatiotemporal ...

A systematic review on improving the biocompatibility of titanium implants using nanoparticles

Manufacturing Review, 2020
An ideal biomaterial should be biointegratable with minimum adverse immune response. Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are widely used biomaterials for manufacturing clinical implants because of their innate biocompatibility. However, the bioinert property of
