Area of Science:

  • Biomechanics
  • Orthopedics
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Bone mechanical properties are crucial for understanding development, adaptation, and fracture.
  • Current clinical assessments of bone health and fracture healing have limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review insights from finite element (FE) model-based mechanical biomarkers of bone.
  • To cover in vivo assessment of bone development, adaptation, fracture risk, and healing.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing muscle-driven FE models to correlate prenatal strains with morphological development.
  • Employing FE-based virtual mechanical tests for fracture healing assessment.
  • Developing image-based FE models for noninvasive mechanical biomarker measurement.

Main Results:

  • FE models predict bone fracture risk and quantify mechanical environments during locomotion.
  • Virtual mechanical tests show higher fidelity in assessing fracture healing than current standards.
  • Mechanical biomarkers predict healing strength and time to healing.

Conclusions:

  • Image-based FE models are powerful, noninvasive tools for translational bone research.
  • Further development in imaging and model validation is needed for dynamic bone phases.
  • FE models enhance understanding of bone response across the lifespan.
