[ 3 ] - Evaluation of the effect of tamoxifen citrate on model of osteoporosis in dog: biomechanical and histopathological studies
The effect of tamoxifen citrate on bone mass in immobilization osteoporosis was studied in 10 dogs.Osteoporosis was induced by fiberglass cast immobilization of the right hind-limb for 28 days, while the lefthind-limb served as a non-immobilized control.
