Determining mineral content variations in bone using backscattered electron imaging.
The mechanical properties of bones are greatly influenced by the ratio of organic constituents to mineral. Determination of bone mineral content on a macroscopic scale is straightforward, but… Expand

Progression of human bone ingrowth into porous-coated implants. Rate of bone ingrowth in humans.
We report the measured progression of human cancellous bone ingrowth into load-bearing porous-coated titanium implants over 5 time periods (0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months). There was a statistically… Expand
