Full Description
3D Bioprinting in Cancer Applications is an all-encompassing guide covering both fundamentals concerning biofabrication principles and intricate protocols for precise construction of biomimetric 3D systems supporting advanced cell culture development that faithfully recapitulates human disease hallmarks, with a special focus on cancer. This title fills the void left by existing publications overlooking essential aspects associated with combining multimodal medical imaging alongside precision cancer treatment options. In 12 chapters 3D Bioprinting in Cancer Applications leads the reader from an introduction to bioprinting technologies for cancer models, to models for immunotherapy and tumour-immune interaction, to biomimetrics 3D models to the applications of all these models in 3D bioprinted cancer models . 3D Bioprinting in Cancer Applications uniquely combines distinct modalities under a unified framework suitable not only for seasoned veterans but also newly minted trainees encountering these sophisticated practices for the first time.
