Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative 3D analysis of the canal network in cortical bone by micro-computed tomography.
TL;DR: The use of muCT is introduced for the analysis of cortical porosity by providing examples, discussing some of the parameters that can be acquired, and relating these to research applications, as well as adapting existing algorithms based on skeletonization for this task.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age-dependent change in the 3D structure of cortical porosity at the human femoral midshaft.
David M.L. Cooper,C. David L. Thomas,John G. Clement,Andrei L. Turinsky,Christoph Wilhelm Sensen,Benedikt Hallgrímsson +5 more
TL;DR: While age was the most important factor, sex and body size were found to play a role in parameters related to canal size and the overall level of porosity in 3D remodeling-related change in the structure of cortical bone porosity across the human lifespan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trabecular bone in the bird knee responds with high sensitivity to changes in load orientation.
Herman Pontzer,Daniel E. Lieberman,E.N. Momin,Maureen J. Devlin,John D. Polk,Benedikt Hallgrímsson,David M.L. Cooper +6 more
TL;DR: An experimental test of Wolff's law of trajectorial orientation using a within-species design in age-matched subjects experiencing physiologically normal levels of bone strain shows that the fine trabecular bone in the distal femur has a high degree of correspondence between changes in joint angle and trabECular orientation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Microcomputed Tomographic and Microradiographic Measurements of Cortical Bone Porosity
TL;DR: The qualitative and quantitative similarities between the two techniques demonstrated the utility of 2D microcomputed tomographic for cortical porosity analysis, but relatively poor results for pore density revealed that a higher resolution is needed to consistently visualize all cortical pores in human bone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulating mechanical behaviour of 3D-printed cartilage-mimetic PCL scaffolds: influence of molecular weight and pore geometry
TL;DR: This study illustrates that modulating MW of PCL and pore geometrical configurations of the scaffolds enabled design and fabrication ofPCL scaffolds with mechanical and biomimetic properties that better mimic mechanical behaviour of human articular cartilage.
