Sequential In vivo Imaging of Osteogenic Stem/Progenitor Cells During Fracture Repair

Quantitative measurement of bone progenitor function in fracture healing requires high resolution serial imaging technology. Here, protocols are provided for using intravital microscopy and osteo-lineage tracking to sequentially image and quantify the migration, proliferation and differentiation of endogenous osteogenic stem/progenitor cells in the process of repairing bone...

Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of Orbital Fractures

Personalized medicine for orbital reconstruction is developing rapidly. Due to the delicate nature of the orbit, small discrepancies following fracture reconstruction may cause impairment in visual perception. Here, we describe three methods for virtual 3D reconstruction of orbital defects and their indications and potential pitfalls for correct reconstruction.

Surgical Fixation of Sternal Fractures: Preoperative Planning and a Safe Surgical Technique Using Locked Titanium Plates and Depth Limited Drilling

Here we present a method to stabilize sternal fractures by using locked titanium plates in a low profile design. Performing subperiosteal dissection along the sternum while reducing the fracture, using depth limited drilling, and fixing the plates provides a safe surgical...
