Effect of integration time on the morphometric, densitometric and mechanical properties of the mouse tibia.
Micro-Computed Tomography (microCT) images are used to measure morphometric and densitometric properties of bone, and to develop finite element (FE) models to estimate mechanical properties. However, there are concerns about the invasiveness of microCT imaging due to the X-rays ionising radiation induced by the repeated scans on the same animal. Therefore, the best compromise between radiation ...
متن کاملInterrelationships between Densitometric, Morphometric, and Mechanical Properties of the Tibia in Turkeys
The aim of the study was to evaluate the interrelationships between parameters assessed with the use of a computed tomography technique and mechanical properties of the tibia in male turkeys at different stages of skeletal development. Healthy male turkeys (N = 120) were kept under standard rearing conditions and randomly selected from the farm flock at the age of 4, 8, 12, and 20 weeks of life...
متن کاملMorphometric, densitometric and mechanical properties of mandibular deciduous teeth in 5-month-old Polish Merino sheep
BACKGROUND Caries, enamel hypoplasia, molar incisor hipomineralization, amylogenesis imperfecta, dentine dysplasia, hypophosphatasia and other dental disorders lead to tooth mineralization disturbances and structural abnormalities, decreasing masticatory organ functions. Dental disorders in sheep can lead to premature slaughter before they have attained final stage of their reproductive life an...
متن کاملSegmental Musculoskeletal Examinations using Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA): Positioning and Analysis Considerations.
Musculoskeletal examinations provide informative and valuable quantitative insight into muscle and bone health. DXA is one mainstream tool used to accurately and reliably determine body composition components and bone mass characteristics in-vivo. Presently, whole body scan models separate the body into axial and appendicular regions, however there is a need for localised appendicular segmentat...
متن کاملQuantitating the effect of prosthesis design on femoral remodeling using high‐resolution region‐free densitometric analysis (DXA‐RFA)
Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the reference standard method used to study bone mineral density (BMD) after total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, the subtle, spatially complex changes in bone mass due to strain-adaptive bone remodeling relevant to different prosthesis designs are not readily resolved using conventional DXA analysis. DXA region free analysis (DXA RFA) is a novel comp...
