stem cells are of great interest for regenerating disturbed tissues and organs. these cells are commonly isolated from the bone marrow, but there has been interest in other tissues in the recent years. in this study, we evaluated the possibility of isolation of stem cells from oral connective tissue and investigated their characteristics.in this experimental study, sampling from the bone marrow...

3d imagination of human's organs has become feasible by digital image processing techniques and algorithms via ct or mri images in recent years. in this study, a new method for reverse engineering and biomodelling of hard tissues by catia cloud points' concept has been considered. comparing with the current softwares (e.g. biobuild or mimics) has shown the new method's easiness of implementing ...

Introduction: Although there are several ways to relief pain in metastatic patients, the use of radionuclides is one of the known and effective ways to relieve the pain caused by bone metastases. The purpose of this study was to assessment of radiation dose distribution of different radioisotopes used to treatment and pain relief patients in a bone-based model based on Monte C...

Background: Osteoporosis one of the postmenopausal symptoms is characterized by bone loss. There is a link between excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, estrogen deficiency due to cessation of ovarian function and bone loss. Free radicals are responsible for causing osteoblast apoptosis and reducing osteoblastogenesis in bone remodeling. Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant with the a...

Bone Tissue Engineering In article number 2100177, Mohan Edirisinghe and co-workers report viable live (green) cells surrounding core-sheath gyrospun fiber scaffold where the sheath only contains functional bioactive hydroxyapatite thereby giving accelerated healing to boost bone tissue engineering.

objectives: the purpose of this study was to determine buccal bone and soft tissue thicknesses and their correlation in the maxillary anterior region using cone beam computed tomography (cbct). materials and methods: in this cross sectional study, 330 sound maxillary incisors in 60 patients with a mean age of 37.5 years were assessed by cbct scans. for better visualization of soft tissue, patie...

human body consists of some tissues among which bone is one of the important living and growing tissue . in this research, energy absorption buildup factor (eabf) values of 27 types of bone have been computed for photon energy 0.03 to 1.5 mev up to 40 mean free path (40mfp) penetration depths. the inner bone tissue, spongiosa and male sternum had the largest values of eabf in low photon energie...

Introduction: Coverage of bone grafts is very important in reconstructive surgery. In edentulous alveolar ridges this coverage is particularly important for supporting dental prostheses. Here we present the case of a patient with a large deficient maxillary anterior region that was reconstructed with a bilateral palatal submucosal periosteal connective tissue flap: a soft tissue reserve for up...
