Abstract:
Current routine radiological procedures do not quantify the degree of calcium phosphate ceramic implant integration with the host bone, nor the rate of remodelling processes in the latter. The successful clinical use of non-invasive techniques in assessing bone mass deserves attention from surgeons and scientists dealing with hard tissue prosthetics and implants. Two suitable techniques for such non-invasive sequential analysis of the ceramic implant and host bone are outlined.
