Infos

Artificial Human Organs: Science and Innovation of the Bionic Body explores all new developments in the evolving field of organ replacement and bionic technology, where new organs, body parts, and tissue replacement solutions are currently used or might be beneficial in the future. The clinical need for artificial organ replacements and bionic body parts are explained and, more broadly, the need for improvement, potential engineering solutions, clinical indications, perspectives, and organ/body-part technology research and development. This book provides up-to-date information on organ replacement techniques and bionic technology among different organs and systems and discusses the limitations of the current methodologies and techniques. Incorporating perspectives from leading experts in the field, this comprehensive book is aimed at biomedical engineering students, medical students, physicians, engineering and biomedical researchers early in their careers, as well as those with an interest in artificial organ, bionic body and human bionics.

Autor

Jamshid H. Karimov, MD, PhD, FAHA, FACC is a cardiac surgeon, researcher, inventor and author with extensive experience in device therapies for heart failure, mechanical circulatory support, total artificial hearts, cardiac replacement, and minimally invasive cardiac surgical techniques. He is currently affiliated with the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University, and the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Molecular Medicine, Cleveland Clinic Lerner Research Institute. Dr. Karimov’s research interests and innovative work focus on development of simple surgical devices, new methodologies, advanced cardiac therapies, and platform technologies for cardiovascular applications. As an inventor and Principal Investigator, Dr. Karimov conducted first-in-man efforts at Cleveland Clinic. He has achieved the longest in vivo duration for continuous flow total artificial heart implantation. He has also introduced innovative methods for intraoperative cardiac device management and designed new cardiovascular devices.
