Further, the inability to differentiate between the bone and the labrum made it impossible to measure bone-bone distances at impingement and determine whether the bones collided at end range FADIR.
A precise and accurate computed radiogrammetry method has been developed to measure dental alveolar bone (Bone Right®, Dental Graphic Ltd, Himeji, Japan) that overcomes the difficulties associated with other methods [ 28– 30].
Also, bone scans actually measure bone formation, not the presence of cancer itself.
Curve, bone, bone, curve.
Calibrated CT-scans and 3D-optical scans of the bones were obtained to measure bone mineral density (BMD) and cut accuracy, respectively.
In this chapter, common experimental methods that are used to measure bone mechanical properties at the whole-bone scale, micrometre scale and sub-micrometre scale are detailed.
F-Fluoride PET/CT is a relatively undervalued diagnostic test to measure bone metabolism in bone diseases.
While difficult to measure, bone quality (alterations in bone geometry and microarchitecture) is also thought to be reduced with aging and contributes to compromised structural integrity of bone.
In this study 17 patients had iliac crest bone biopsies to measure bone strontium content (BSC) at 1 year and 64 patients at 2 years.
MicroCT was used to measure bone volume per tissue volume and bone density in a cylindrical volume comprising the implant, with settings as previously described (volume diameter: 2 mm; Agholme 2014).
Three-dimensional reconstruction and evaluation were performed using Scanco software (Scanco Medical) to measure the following bone parameters: trabecular bone volume, trabecular number, trabecular separation, trabecular thickness, structural model index, and connectivity density.
