The use of a porous coating on prosthetic components to encourage bone ingrowth is an
important way of improving uncemented implant fixation. Enhanced fixation may be …

Beneficial effects on bone–implant bonding may accrue from ferromagnetic fiber networks
on implants which can deform in vivo inducing controlled levels of mechanical strain directly …

The rationale behind this work is to design an implant device, based on a ferromagnetic
material, with the potential to deform in vivo promoting osseointegration through the growth …

Ferromagnetic fiber networks have the potential to deform in vivo imparting therapeutic
levels of strain on in-growing periprosthetic bone tissue. 444 Ferritic stainless steel provides …

The aim of this work is to improve bone-implant bonding. This can, potentially, be achieved
through the use of an implant coating composed of fibre networks. It is hypothesised that …

Porous coatings on prosthetic implants encourage implant fixation. Enhanced fixation may
be achieved using a magneto-active porous coating that can deform elastically in vivo on the …

There is currently an interest in “active” implantable biomedical devices that include
mechanical stimulation as an integral part of their design. This paper reports the …

Bone tissue engineering emerged as a solution to treat critical bone defects, aiding in tissue
regeneration and implant integration. Mainly, this field is based on the development of …

In this article we present the morphological and magnetic characterization of ferrofluid-
impregnated biomimetic scaffolds made of hydroxyapatite and collagen used for bone …

The use of magnetism in tissue engineering is a very promising approach, in fact magnetic
scaffolds are able not only to support tissue regeneration, but they can be activated and …
