title: Phases in titanium alloys.
abstract: Titanium (Ti) provides the basis for many alloys used in medical technology. These alloys have been discussed many times in this column over the past decade. In recent years in particular, there have been a number of developments in Ti metallurgy, which suggests that a reappraisal of these alloy systems is timely.
