The Bone Vet: Metachrotic Engineer: The Play

This play is intended for all to read. It is a combination of veterinary surgery, engineering and science. It outlines the various disciplines and problems that a surgeon must deal with day to day. Examples of actual cases are provided to bring all the science and medicine together. Each topic is explored and teased out in a certain way to merge the concepts. The focus on implant design is deliberate, with the intention of hopefully rallying support for an alternative approach. Ultimately, it is a call for change: human implant certification is strictly controlled to ensure compliance for safe use in humans; veterinary implants do not require such certification.
