Preface

Today, although the orthopedic surgery has come a long way through adaptation/integration of modern tools such as sensors and computer aided drawing (CAD) based generation of patient specific defined joint design and bone machining parameters, it is still largely conducted by the surgeon using conventional tools such as saw, ultrasonic cutter, hammer, drill, etc. Such mostly conventional way of orthopedic surgery is associated with human and tool attributes and hence leaves tremendous room for further development of operating tools and techniques. The further developments are likely to address adverse effects of orthopedic surgery such as but not limited to: severe damage of tissues within and surrounding repaired/operated regions, low precision in final dimensional tolerance on repaired/operated bone, relatively slow surgical processes, post-surgery tissue trauma, rigorous pain, and in some cases post-surgery and related addition of cost. In light of this, this is the first book that provides a comprehensive review of the machining of bones and hard tissues for orthopedic surgery through points of view of engineering and biology. The book begins with a description on the types of orthopedic surgeries and their societal and economic impact. Such description was intended to underscore the growing importance of the fie
