Laser powder bed fusion of titanium-tantalum alloys: Compositions and designs for biomedical applications.

This study further shows that porous TiTa scaffolds fabricated using L-PBF are biocompatible with comparable biological results and manufacturability as Ti6Al4V and commercially pure titanium, based on the results obtained from cell culture with human osteosarcoma cell line SAOS-2.
