Changes in bone structure and mass with advancing age in the male C57BL/6J mouse.

TL;DR: The rapid early loss of cancellous bone suggests that bone loss is not just associated with old age in the mouse but rather occurs as a continuum from early growth, and the C57BL/6J male mouse maybe a useful model to study at least some aspects of age‐related bone loss in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-resolution Computed Tomography for Clinical Imaging of Bone Microarchitecture

TL;DR: CT currently provides quantitative measures of bone structure and may be used for estimating bone strength mathematically and the techniques may provide clinically relevant information by enhancing the understanding of fracture risk and establishing the efficacy of antifracture for osteoporosis and other bone metabolic disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Osteoarthritis of the knee: comparison of radiography, CT, and MR imaging to assess extent and severity.

TL;DR: MR is more sensitive than radiography and CT for assessing the extent and severity of osteoarthritic changes and frequently shows tricompartmental disease in patients in whom radiographyand CT show only bicompartmentsal involvement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin‐Like Growth Factor I Is Required for the Anabolic Actions of Parathyroid Hormone on Mouse Bone

TL;DR: The results indicate that IGF‐I is required for the anabolic actions of PTH on bone formation, but the defect lies distal to the initial response of the osteoblast to PTH.
