Room-temperature liquid metal materials are rapidly emerging as next-generation functional materials that display many unconventional properties superior to those of conventional biomaterials. Their outstanding, unique versatility (“one material, diverse capabilities”) opens many exciting opportunities for the medical sciences. The book reviews representative applications of liquid metal biomaterials from both therapeutic and diagnostic aspects. It also discusses related efforts to employ liquid metals to overcome today’s biomedical challenges. It will provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the technical advances and fundamental discoveries on the frontier, and thus equip them to investigate and utilize liquid metal biomaterials to tackle various critical problemsSummary: Introduction -- Thermal Physical Properties of Liquid Metal -- Electrical Properties of Liquid Metal -- Mechanical Properties of Low Melting Point Metal -- Biocompatibility of Liquid Metal -- Liquid Metal Angiography -- Liquid Metal as Vascular Embolic Agent to Starve Tumors -- Liquid Metal Injectable Electronics -- Liquid Metal to Connect Damaged Nerves -- Liquid Metal Injectable Bone Cement -- Flexible Human Exoskeleton -- Liquid Metal Skin Electronics -- Liquid Metal Printed Biosensors -- Liquid Metal Wearable Electronics -- Liquid Alkali Alloy Enabled Chemothermal TherapyPPN: PPN: 102802858XPackage identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-CMS | ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXC
