EPFL researchers have developed a flexible auditory brainstem implant ABI that closely conforms to the curved surface of the brainstem.
Biocompatibility is vital to medical device safety. It ensures implants and other devices can be used in and on the body with minimal adverse reactions. Medical devices must be highly biocompatible, as they often contact the body's internal tissues and fluids.
A technical analysis of 3D printing in healthcare, covering materials, clinical applications, and regulatory considerations for engineers.
