Biological Cell Investigation of Structured Nitinol Surfaces for the Functionalization of Implants
Expandable implants including shape memory alloy (SMA) elements have great potential to minimize the risk of implant loosening and to increase the primary stability of bone anchoring. Surface structuring of such elements may further improve these properties and support osteointegration and bone heal...
