Three‐Dimensional, Load‐Sharing, Pre‐Vascularized
Scaffold for Bone Regeneration
Bi-weekly x-rays (A) showed progressive bone regeneration up to 10 weeks. The reconstructed CT images (B & C) show bone growing into and within the scaffold while the scaffolds maintained their mechanical strength.
Invention Summary:
Over 600,000 bone grafting procedures are performed in the US annually. While bone autografting is the gold...
