Diamond coated microtools for machining compact bone
The structure of compact bone is heterogeneous and as such, is difficult to shape by cutting tools during clinical surgical practices. The structure of bone can have a devastating effect on the performance of the cutting tool unless it is coated with a thin solid film that is wear resistant. The paper investigates the use of diamond coated cutting tools to prepare bone for prosthetic implants and ...

Infrared spectroscopy of human bone marrow: evidence of structural changes during acute leukemia
Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was explored as a means to distinguish newly diagnosed of acute lymphoblastic leukemia from disease free bone marrow samples. Characteristic bands alterations were identified in both healthy and diseased samples arising from cellular protein, lipid and DNA. There were specific changes that affected the secondary structure of proteins that appeared in ...

Advantages of using Spine 3D(CT-based) Navigation in complex Spine Surgeries
To confidently perform a spinal fusion and screw fixation with excellence surgical navigation is consistently used as a powerful tool. Surgical Navigation provides real-time guidance and precise measurements for accurately placing the pedicle screws to help stabilize the spine. A preoperative CT scan gives a detailed visualization of the structure decreasing the potential for implant-related ...

Effects of supervised high-intensity resistance and impact training or machine-based isometric training on regional bone geometry and strength in middle-aged and older men with low bone mass: The LIFTMOR-M semi-randomised controlled trial
Abstract Introduction: Few data exist on the effects of bone-targeted exercise on geometric and biomechanical indices of bone strength in men. The Lifting Intervention For Training Muscle and Osteoporosis Rehabilitation for Men (LIFTMOR-M) trial was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of two novel, supervised, twice-weekly, high-intensity exercise programs in middle-aged and older ...

Proximal Femur Responses to Sequential Therapy With Abaloparatide Followed by Alendronate in Postmenopausal Women With Osteoporosis by 3D Modeling of Hip Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA)
ABSTRACT Previous subgroup analyses from the ACTIVE trial in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis (NCT01343004) using three-dimensional (3D)-processing of dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans indicated greater increases in total hip cortical volumetric bone mineral density (Ct.vBMD) and estimated indices of hip strength following 18 months of abaloparatide (ABL) versus placebo or ...

Variation of bone forming ability with the physicochemical properties of calcium phosphate bone substitutes
Six commercially available CaP bone substitutes (Bio-Oss, Actifuse, Bi-Ostetic, MBCP, Vitoss and chronOs) as well as two tricalcium phosphate (TCP) ceramics with either a micron-scale (TCP-B) or submicronscale (TCP-S) surface structure are characterized and their bone forming potential is evaluated in a canine ectopic implantation model. It has been demonstrated that the specific topography and ...
