Saturday 17th August 2013
Queen Mary University of London has produced a new short film highlighting different medical implants including total knee replacement, prosthetic legs, artificial bone, breast implants and urological stents.
The film includes clips showing implants being developed, tested, manufactured, implanted and used. It has been used as part of bioengineering public engagement activity and demonstrates the importance of medical engineers and medical materials scientists in developing these implants and the medical treatments of tomorrow.
