Abstract
to the additively manufactured alloy in a critical-sized cranial defect murine model revealed enhanced interactions with the cellular components after the alloy was subjected to SMAT without inducing any adverse immune response. Taken together, the results of this work establish SMAT of additively manufactured metallic implants as an effective strategy for engineering next-generation, high-performance medical devices for orthopedics and craniomaxillofacial applications.
