Role of Trabecular Microarchitecture and Its Heterogeneity Parameters in the Mechanical Behavior of Ex Vivo Human L3 Vertebrae
Low bone mineral density (BMD) is a strong risk factor for vertebral fracture risk in osteoporosis. However, many fractures occur in people with moderately decreased or normal BMD. Our aim was to assess the contributions of trabecular microarchitecture and its heterogeneity to the mechanical behavior of human lumbar vertebrae. Twenty-one human L(3) vertebrae were analyzed for BMD by dual-energy...
متن کاملQuantification of the roles of trabecular microarchitecture and trabecular type in determining the elastic modulus of human trabecular bone.
UNLABELLED The roles of microarchitecture and types of trabeculae in determining elastic modulus of trabecular bone have been studied in microCT images of 29 trabecular bone samples by comparing their Young's moduli calculated by finite element analysis (FEA) with different trabecular type-specific reconstructions. The results suggest that trabecular plates play an essential role in determining...
متن کاملLong range node-strut analysis of trabecular bone microarchitecture.
PURPOSE We present a new morphometric measure of trabecular bone microarchitecture, called mean node strength (NdStr), which is part of a newly developed approach called long range node-strut analysis. Our general aim is to describe and quantify the apparent "latticelike" microarchitecture of the trabecular bone network. METHODS Similar in some ways to the topological node-strut analysis intr...
متن کاملHealing trabecular microfractures in the bodies of lumbar vertebrae.
The presence of nodular aggregates of woven bone situated on porotic trabeculae has been described in the patella in chondromalacia patellae (Darracott and Vernon-Roberts, 1971) and in the femoral head in osteoarthrosis and rheumatoid arthritis (Todd, Freeman, and Pirie, 1972). The distribution and microstructure of the nodular aggregates indicate that they may represent some form of new bone f...
متن کاملAnterior approach to the upper thoracic vertebrae.
The anterior exposure of the upper thoracic spine using standard methods is often difficult and limited. We report our experience using a technique described by Sundaresan et al. (1984) in which the medial portion of one clavicle and part of the manubrium sterni are excised. In 10 cases we found this to be a useful and safe procedure.
