Finite element analysis (FEA) based on CT datasets of the spine or hip or on high-resolution
peripheral CT datasets of the distal forearm or tibia is now widely used in research and …

Temporal and spatial variations in bone marrow adipose tissue (MAT) can be indicative of
several pathologies and confound current methods of assessing immediate changes in …

Epidemiological and biomechanical evidence indicates that the risk of vertebral fracture
differs between men and women, and that vertebral fracture frequently involves failure of the …

Bone geometry, density and microstructure can vary widely between subjects. Knowledge
about this variation in a population is of interest in particular for the design of orthopedic …

Continuum finite element (FE) models of bones and bone-implant configurations are usually
based on clinical CT scans. In virtually all of these models, material properties assigned to …

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a topology-based tissue scaffold design
methodology to accurately represent the heterogeneous internal architecture of …

The increasing development in computational technology has allowed the use of numerical
