abstract = "Microwave welding presents promising advantages for the biomedical sector, offering unique possibilities for joining metallic materials. This review explores the principles, current applications, and potential of microwave welding technology for various biomedical metals. A comprehensive overview of metals successfully joined using microwave techniques such as titanium, stainless steel, and Ni-chromium alloys highlights the benefits of this approach, including precise thermal control, minimized oxidation, and reduced heat-affected zones, which are crucial for maintaining the mechanical and biocompatibility properties of biomedical implants and devices. Additionally, the potential for extending microwave welding to other metals, like magnesium alloys and nitinol, is discussed, focusing on the challenges and anticipated solutions for achieving optimal joint strength and corrosion resistance. This article aims to provide insights into how microwave welding could meet the demands for high-performance biomedical components and contribute to advancements in biocompatibility and durability, positioning it as a promising tool in medical device manufacturing.",
