Experimental models for cancellous bone healing in the rat.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cancellous bone appears to heal by mechanisms different from shaft fracture healing. There is a paucity of animal models for fractures in cancellous bone, especially with mechanical evaluation. One proposed model consists of a screw in the proximal tibia of rodents, evaluated by pull-out testing. We evaluated this model in rats by comparing it to the healing of empty dril...
متن کاملComparison of Conventional and Bayesian Analysis for the Ultrasonic Characterization of Cancellous Bone
OF THE DISSERTATION Comparison of Conventional and Bayesian Analysis for the Ultrasonic Characterization of Cancellous Bone by Amber Mae Groopman Doctor of Philosophy in Physics Washington University in St. Louis, 2014 Professor James G. Miller, Chair This dissertation investigates the physics underlying the propagation of ultrasonic waves in cancellous bone. Although quantitative ultrasound ha...
متن کاملA Sheep Model for Cancellous Bone Healing
Appropriate well-characterized bone defect animal models remain essential for preclinical research. This pilot study demonstrates a relevant animal model for cancellous bone defect healing. Three different defect diameters (8, 11, 14 mm) of fixed depth (25 mm) were compared in both skeletally immature (18-month-old) and aged sheep (5-year-old). In each animal, four defects were surgically creat...
متن کاملEffects of the structural anisotropy and the porosity on ultrasonic wave propagation in bovine cancellous bone
Ultrasonic wave propagation in water-saturated bovine cancellous (spongy) bone has been experimentally studied in vitro by a pulse transmission technique. In earlier investigation, fast and slow longitudinal waves have been clearly observed when the acoustic wave propagates in the direction of the trabeculm orientation. In the present study, the propagation speeds of the fast and the slow waves...
متن کاملCompressive properties of commercially available polyurethane foams as mechanical models for osteoporotic human cancellous bone
BACKGROUND Polyurethane (PU) foam is widely used as a model for cancellous bone. The higher density foams are used as standard biomechanical test materials, but none of the low density PU foams are universally accepted as models for osteoporotic (OP) bone. The aim of this study was to determine whether low density PU foam might be suitable for mimicking human OP cancellous bone. METHODS Quasi...
