Bioresorbable and Wireless Rechargeable Implanted Na‐ion Battery for Temporary Medical Devices
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.An all‐solid‐state bioresorbable Na‐ion battery is developed, composed entirely of bio‐eliminable materials. In vivo and ex vivo tests confirmed harmless disintegration of this implanted battery. Lifetime of the implanted battery can be precisely controlled by adjusting the dissolvable encapsulation layer's thickness.

Optimum Design of Printable Tunable Stiffness Metamaterial for Bone Healing [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 A tunable stiffness bone rod was designed, optimized, and 3D printed to address the common shortcomings of existing bone rods in the healing of long fractured bones. The common deficiencies of existing bone fixations are high stiffness, thereby negligible flexibility in deformation for best bone growth results, and stress-shielding effect.

Automatic Vertebra Localization and Identification in CT by Spine Rectification and Anatomically-constrained Optimization [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Accurate vertebra localization and identification are required in many clinical applications of spine disorder diagnosis and surgery planning. However, significant challenges are posed in this task by highly varying pathologies (such as vertebral compression fracture, scoliosis, and vertebral fixation) and imaging conditions (such as limited field of ...

Multi‐Scaled Cellulosic Nanonetworks from Tunicates
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Microbial and plant nanonetworks of cellulose have enabled a wide range of high‐performance yet sustainable materials. Herein, a third class of cellulosic nanonetworks is showcased by exploiting the only animal tissue‐producing cellulose nanofibers, i.e., ascidians. An ultrastructure including spherical cells and a microvasculature with diameters of 50–

The Elements of Fracture fixation [PDF]
Medical Journal Armed Forces India, 2003 Internal fixation of the fracture is the common procedure undertaken by the Orthopaedic surgeons in their practice. The screws, nails, wires, plates are often used implants by them. Hence, it is essential that every surgeon and the resident knows the biomechanics of his tools and understands the scientific basis of their application and their ...
