Models in Wound Healing

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Measurements in Wound Healing

Abstract

This short chapter deals engagingly with invitro models making references to in vivo and other models. Clearly modelling could easily be a book in its own right. The authors of this chapter have presented the methodology of modelling as applicable to wound healing. The chapter is short and to the point.
