The main goal of this book is to explore the application of 3D printing in medicine and healthcare that could revolutionize drug development and medical equipment production and also improve supply chains, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare. In the fields of medicine, pharmaceuticals, surgical planning, and personalized medical treatment, the novel emergence of 3D printing technology has opened a wide range of potential applications. With personalized solutions that were previously impossible, 3D printing has opened up novel possibilities in patient care, from developing unique medications to manufacturing prosthetics and implants that are particular to each patient. The 14 chapters in this volume present the reader with an array of subjects including: the evolution and background of 3D printing, charting its extraordinary path from its inauspicious origins to its current significance in the field of healthcare. Also discussed are the many kinds of 3D printers that are employed in additive manufacturing, as well as how they are modified for usage in medical settings; the current developments in medical science brought about by 3D printing technology, including the clinical uses of 3D printed models in different medical domains, ranging from cardiovascular illness to tumors, and congenital heart disease; personalized medicine and the creation of dosage forms utilizing 3D printing methods, the benefits and drawbacks of various 3D printing technologies and the applications of these technologies in healthcare, including the creation of immediate-release tablets, capsules, and implants for a range of illnesses; the possibilities of 3D printed anatomical models for surgical planning, the roles of 3D printing technologies that are used to produce surgical guides, knee implants, spinal implants, and other patient-specific applications; the current developments in 3D printed medication delivery devices including regulatory concerns; the field of personalized medicine using 3D printing, and discusses organ models for preoperative diagnostics, permanent non-bioactive implants, local bioactive and biodegradable scaffolds, and direct printing of tissues and organs; the different specialized uses of 3D printing in the medical field, covering topics including hospital management and administration, surgical training for urological operations, ophthalmology, and preserving safety and efficacy in point-of-care. Audience The book will be widely read by all healthcare professionals, biomedical engineers, researchers, and graduate students who are seeking to expand their knowledge of efficient techniques of 3D printing technology in the healthcare sector.

MULTI-DRUG RESISTANCE IN CANCERThe book details the mechanisms underlying multi-drug cellular resistance and the targets of novel chemotherapeutic agents.Cancer is a major killer all over the world. Even with all the progress made, chemotherapy is still the mainstay of modern cancer treatment. The progression of the cellular defeat of numerous independent anticancer drugs in terms of their chemical structure is a major barrier to successful chemotherapy. Multi-drug resistance (MDR) is a term for the fact that most cancer patients exhibit this phenomenon. According to the numbers, drug resistance carries the blame for 90% of cancer patient deaths. Refractory cancer and tumor recurrence are common outcomes of prolonged chemotherapy. Because of the prevalence of drug-resistance mutations, the difficulty of treating tumors increases and the therapeutic efficacy of drugs decreases.Multi-Drug Resistance in Cancer: Mechanism and Treatment Strategies contains nine chapters that cover topics such as: studying the mechanics of resistance to drugs by autophagy; studies to delineate the role of efflux transporters; expression of drug transporters; resistance to targeted therapies in breast cancer; advances in metallodrug driven combination treatment for cancer; and use of natural agents for the overcoming of cancer drug resistance.The book aims to provide the latest data on the mechanisms of cellular resistance to anticancer agents currently used in clinical treatment. It provides a better understanding of the mechanisms of MDR and targets of novel chemotherapy agents which should guide future research concerning new effective strategies in cancer treatment.AudienceThis book is written for pharmaceutical and biomedical scientists and researchers at both the bench and in the clinic who are interested in the mechanisms and strategies for overcoming cancer's multi-drug resistance.
