This study is a biomechanical cadaveric investigation to assess bone healing by measuring frequency changes using a new plate design called bone union detection with wire’s natural frequency (BUDWF).

A new artificial bone design has been developed that can be customized and made with a 3-D printer for stronger, safer and more effective bone replacements, explains a new report. A UBC Okanagan ...

Engineers designing lighter aircraft frames, stronger medical implants, and more efficient vehicle structures keep returning ...

In a new study, researchers are investigating the types of material used in bone reconstruction to see which one works best. Bone injuries in the face and skull -- known as craniomaxillofacial defects ...

This coral-like form is a spinal implant. Created by Californian medical company NuVasive, it is made from titanium and fits precisely between two vertebrae. By mimicking the porousness and stiffness ...

A team of biomedical engineers from Australia and Germany studied how human and mouse cells communicate with each other and found that this humanized tissue is physiologically integrated into single ...

Custom devices supporting bone regeneration and implant placement are needed for edentulous patients with large mandibular deficiencies where endosteal implantation is not possible. We developed a ...
