Raman spectroscopy is increasingly commonly used to understand how changes in bone
composition and structure influence tissue-level bone mechanical properties. The …

Although musculoskeletal diseases such as osteoporosis are diagnosed and treatment
outcome is evaluated based mainly on routine clinical outcomes of bone mineral density …

For load-bearing orthopaedic applications, metal implants having an interconnected pore
structure exhibit the potential to facilitate bone ingrowth and the possibility for reducing the …

Tendon attaches to bone across a functionally graded interface,“the enthesis”. A gradient of
mineral content is believed to play an important role for dissipation of stress concentrations …

In orthopaedic surgery, cobalt chromium (CoCr) based alloys are used extensively for their
high strength and wear properties, but with concerns over stress shielding and bone …

As the application of Raman spectroscopy to study bone has grown over the past decade,
making it a peer technology to FTIR spectroscopy, it has become critical to understand their …

Despite its static appearance, bone is a very dynamic living tissue that undergoes constant
remodelling throughout life. After blood, bone is the second most commonly transplanted …

Muscle forces are essential for skeletal patterning during development. Eliminating muscle
forces, eg, through paralysis, leads to bone and joint deformities. Botulinum toxin (BtxA) …

Osteocytes can remove and remodel small amounts of their surrounding bone matrix
through osteocytic osteolysis, which results in increased volume occupied by lacunar and …

Osseointegrated implants inserted in the temporal bone are a vital component of bone-
anchored hearing systems (BAHS). Despite low implant failure levels, early loading …
