Abstract
AbstractCalcium phosphate materials are being extensively investigated for orthopaedic and dental applications. Bone grafts and bone substitutes are being developed using many forms of these materials. Numerous medical devices are being coated with them. Because of the many forms that calcium phosphate materials take, characterization of the material under investigation is essential. Aworkshop sponsored by the Society For Biomaterials on characterization of calcium phosphate materials was held on June 14 and 15, 1989. Sessions discussing the historical development, in vitro characterization, in vitro coating characterization, in vivo coating characterization, the FDA perspective, and the manufacturers perspective were held. A summary of the workshop with references is presented.
