[The research progress of using electromagnetic technology in treatment of bone diseases]

In these years, the study of the bioeffects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) has been listed as the national important task in the field of biological physics. Using EMFs to treat bone diseases is associated with electric technology, biology and medicine. Previous medical studies have shown that EMFs can stimulate healing in bone fractures. But the effects are still controversial and the mechanism is not yet clear. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out experiments in vitro at cellular and molecular levels. Research workers have been exploring the effects of EMFs on bone formation and metabolism. The suggestion of using EMFs in the treatment of osteoporosis and other osseous diseases has been put forward.
