متن کاملChapter 13 Bioceramics
The clinical goal when using ceramic biomaterials, as is the case with any biomaterial, is to replace lost tissue or organ structure and/or function. The rationale for using ceramics in medicine and dentistry was initially based on the relative biological inertness of ceramic materials compared with metals. However, in the past two decades, this emphasis has shifted more toward the use of bioac...
متن کاملCorrecting for non-compliance when determining colonic transit time with radio-opaque markers
The use of radio-opaque markers and abdominal X-ray is the standard method for determining colonic transit time (CTT). However, when there are deviations in the intake of these markers by participants in clinical trials it is desirable to improve observations by introducing corrections, where possible. To date, there is no standard procedure to adjust for such deviations. This report proposes a...
متن کاملEnhancing the bioactivity of a calcium phosphate glass-ceramic with controlled heat treatment
In this paper synthesis and characterization of a bioactive calcium phosphate glass-ceramic is presented, synthesized using a facile method. The glass-ceramic samples are synthesized with heat treating the parent glass at appropriate temperatures, where different calcium phosphate crystalline phases are grown in the parent glass samples during the heat treatment. The amounts of elements a...
متن کاملUsing Skin Markers for Spinal Curvature Quantification in Main Thoracic Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: An Explorative Radiographic Study
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although the relevance of understanding spinal kinematics during functional activities in patients with complex spinal deformities is undisputed among researchers and clinicians, evidence using skin marker-based motion capture systems is still limited to a handful of studies, mostly conducted on healthy subjects and using non-validated marker configurations. The current s...
