3D Bioprinting in Medicine

This book provides current and emerging developments in bioprinting with respect to bioprinting technologies, bioinks, applications, and regulatory pathways. Topics covered include 3D bioprinting technologies, materials such as bioinks and bioink design, applications of bioprinting complex tissues, tissue and disease models, vasculature, and musculoskeletal tissue. The final chapter is devoted to clinical applications of bioprinting, including the safety, ethical, and regulatory aspects. This book serves as a go-to reference on bioprinting and is ideal for students, researchers and professionals, including those in academia, government, the medical industry, and healthcare.

Describes bioprinting techniques and approaches as well as available bioinks and approaches for development of novel bioinks Summarizes the current and emerging applications of bioprinting in medicine Stimulates discussion on the much-needed regulatory aspects of bioprinting
