Materials for Biomedical Applications
This paper discusses two ceramic material systems for selective laser sintering (SLS) that are
being developed for biomedical applications for use in repair of bone defects. SLS is the
preferred method of fabricating ceramic implants that exhibit well defined porous
microstructures. Implants fabricated in this. manner have proven effective in-vivo showing
excellent biocompatibility as well as considerable osseous integration and remodeling of the
imp'ant materialMechanical Engineerin
