Abstract

AbstractMedicine comprise a vast field of research that has crossed the demarcation lines between disciplines over the past decades becoming a multidisciplinary milieu that encompasses a variety of fields from basic sciences (e.g., mathematics and physics) to engineering, and even social sciences and epidemiology. All of these directly contribute to the evolution of medical technologies. In other words, multidisciplinary is a key concept in the evolution of modern medical devices and technologies. It is clear now that the development of biocompatible and durable medical devices rests upon implementation of discoveries from all basic sciences rather than major breakthrough in one field. This will be the scarlet thread in the following sections of this chapter.KeywordsDeep Brain StimulationMedical DeviceCrevice CorrosionOrthopedic ImplantDeep Brain Stimulation ElectrodeThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
