The safety, effectiveness, and utility of medical nanorobotic devices will critically depend upon their biocompatibility with human organs, tissues, cells, and biochemical systems. In this Volume, we broaden the definition of nanomedical biocompatibility to include all of the mechanical, physiological, immunological, cytological, and biochemical re

Salivary Gland Pathology: Diagnosis and Management, SecondEdition, updates the landmark text in this important disciplinewithin oral and maxillofacial surgery, otolaryngology/head and necksurgery, and general surgery. Written by well-establishedclinicians, educators, and researchers in oral and maxillofacialsurgery, this book brings together information on the etiology,diagnosis, and treatment of all types of salivary gland pathology.Clear and comprehensive, Salivary Gland Pathology: Diagnosis andManagement offers complete explanation of all points, supportedby a wealth of clinical and surgical illustrations to allow thereader to gain insight into every facet of each pathologic entityand its diagnosis and treatment. Salivary Gland Pathology: Diagnosis and Management offerscomprehensive coverage of all aspects of this topic. Beginning withthe embryology, anatomy and physiology of the salivary glands, thefirst section of the book discusses radiographic imaging,infections, cystic conditions, sialoadenitis and sialolithiasis,and systemic diseases. The second section of the book is devoted tothe classification of salivary gland tumors and devotes individualchapters to the discussion of each type. Additions for this sectionof the second edition include molecular biology of salivary glandneoplasia, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy and targeted therapyfor salivary gland malignancies. The book closes with adiscussion of pediatric salivary gland pathology, traumaticinjuries of the salivary glands and miscellaneous pathologicprocesses of the salivary glands and ducts, including a section onsaliva as a diagnostic fluid. The book is intended for a very diverse audience, includingacademic oral and maxillofacial surgeons, otolaryngologists / headand neck surgeons, general surgeons, as well as residents in thesedisciplines. Private practitioners will want to place thispublication on the bookshelves of their offices so as to consultthe textbook when evaluating a patient with salivary glandpathology.
