This book focuses on biodegradable polymers that are already in
clinical use or under clinical development. Synthetic and natural
polymers will be included. This excludes polymers that have been
investigated and did not reach clinical development.
The purpose of this book is to provide updated status of the
polymers that are clinical use and those that are now being
developed for clinical use and hopefully will reach the clinic
during the next 5 years. The book provides information that of
interest to academics and practicing researchers including
chemists, biologists and bioengineers and users: physicians,
pharmacists.
