Medical devices and tools that contain nano and micro technologies allow surgeons to perform familiar tasks with greater precision and safety as well as monitor physiological and biomechanical parameters more accurately. While surgeons have started to master the use of nano tools in the operating room, the impact and interaction of nano tools with nano materials has yet to be addressed in a comprehensive manner. 'Surface Engineered Surgical Tools and Medical Devices' is the first book written that looks at the interaction between nano tools and nano materials and explains the use of appropriate tools in surgery for a variety of applications.
