      abstract     = {Within the last years, shape memory alloys based on NiTi
                      gained increasing interest especially for biomedical
                      applications and actuators. Powder metallurgy is an
                      attractive production method which enables manufacturing of
                      near-net-shaped NiTi components with complex geometries,
                      while keeping material losses during processing at a
                      minimum. As starting materials, pre-alloyed NiTi powders are
                      favoured over elemental Ni and Ti powder mixtures if aiming
                      on single-phased microstructures after sintering. In this
                      work, P/M manufacturing of complex-shaped NiTi components
                      with fully expressed shape memory properties is described in
                      detail. Metal injection moulding (MIM) was preferentially
                      used for net-shaping. Prototypes of biomedical foot staple
                      and orthodontic brackets were produced to demonstrate
                      potential of this technology for NiTi alloys. Optionally,
                      functional macro porosity up to 50 vol. $\%$ was achieved by
                      introduction of temporary space holder particles, which is
                      quite promising e.g. for bone implants or damping
                      applications. As reference, NiTi components free of pores
                      were produced by hot isostatic pressing (HIP). The paper
                      provides a detailed description of relationship between P/M
                      processing conditions and resulting mechanical and shape
                      memory properties.},
