This review focuses on modern nonlinear optical microscopy (NLOM) methods that are
increasingly being used in the field of tissue engineering (TE) to image tissue non-invasively …

Substrates used to culture human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are typically 2-dimensional
(2-D) in nature, with limited ability to recapitulate in vivo-like 3-dimensional (3-D) …

We have explored the use of X-ray microcomputed tomography (μCT) for assessing cell
adhesion and proliferation in polymer scaffolds. Common methods for examining cells in …

The need to quantify physicochemical properties of mineralization spans many fields.
Clinicians, mineralization researchers, and bone tissue bioengineers need to be able to …

Imaging of polymer implants during surgical implantations is challenging in that most
materials lack sufficient X-ray contrast. Synthetic derivatization with iodine serves to increase …

The immediate physical and chemical surroundings of cells provide important biochemical
cues for their behavior. Designing and tailoring biomaterials for controlled cell signaling and …

In this chapter we have sought to provide readers with an overview of in vivo techniques
currently used for the imaging of biomineralisation materials. To achieve this we have …

Synthetic materials have emerged as bone substitutes for filling bone defects of critical sizes.
Because bone healing requires a mechanically resistant matrix (scaffold) attractive to …

The integrity, function, and performance of biomedical devices having thin polymeric
coatings are critically dependent on the mechanical properties of the film, including the …
