Bone Morphogenetic Proteins: Applications in Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery
Opis
Since their discovery in the early 1960s, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have been used in a variety of clinical conditions within the field of musculoskeletal medicine. This book represents a compendium of information on the latest advances in the use of BMPs for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions. It is envisaged that this information will provide a foundation for understanding the current uses of BMPs and the evidence that exists to support future uses currently under investigation, and a framework for designing and testing new applications that will advance the field of regenerative medicine.
