Geometrical structure investigation of the surface of internal oesophagus prosthesis

Journal Title: Archives of Materials Science and Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 83

Abstract

Purpose: The aim of the work was roughness investigation of the surface of developed oesophageal prosthesis before and after texturing, to estimate its influence on future application of prosthesis. Design/methodology/approach: Linear, mechanical contact-measurement method and, for verification, optical profile measurement in confocal microscope were used in the work. Findings: The roughness investigation of the surface of developed oesophageal prosthesis before and after texturing was necessary to estimate its influence on future application of prosthesis. Research limitations/implications: The results of investigations of prosthesis of the human oesophagus internal and external surface roughness will be used to design the manufacturing technology and to manufacture given prosthesis. Originality/value: Investigation of geometrical structure of internal and external surface of internal oesophageal prosthesis is the part of the research project realized by authors, that will result in cognitive, constructional and technological effects, but first of all, it will enable the real help very sick people.
