Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of 3D shape, density, cortical thickness and finite element mesh of proximal femur from a DXA image.
TL;DR: DXA-based FE simulation was able to explain 85% of the CT-predicted strength of the femur in stance loading, and the present method can be used to accurately reconstruct the 3D shape and internal density of the Femur from 2D DXA images.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanical and structural characteristics of canine femoral and tibial cartilage.
TL;DR: Observations indicate that cartilage is structurally inhomogenous and layered tissue and the local organization of collagen and GAG concentration of the articular cartilage regulate the biomechanical properties of the tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic imaging (FTIRI) was used to characterize the composition of bone in high-turnover renal osteodystrophy patients by means of FTIRI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ability of ultrasound backscattering to predict mechanical properties of bovine trabecular bone.
TL;DR: Broadband US backscatter and integrated reflection coefficient are promising parameters for the evaluation of density and mechanical properties of trabecular bone, as compared to normalized broadband US attenuation and speed of sound.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regular physical exercise and bone mineral density: a four-year controlled randomized trial in middle-aged men. The DNASCO study.
TL;DR: The increase seen in lumbar BMD reflects age-related changes in the spine, thus making it an unreliable site for BMD follow-up in men, and long-term regular aerobic physical activity in middle-aged men had no effect on the age- related loss of femoral BMD.
