Cortical bone forms the dense outer shell of long bones and is essential for load bearing, protection of the inner marrow and facilitation of locomotion. Its hierarchical architecture comprises ...
Scientists have combined laser 3D printing technology and an alternate soaking process to construct complex 3D structures that mimic bone microstructure. This is the first demonstration of this ...
Fractures of the femoral neck are not simply due to insufficient bone density. Also significant is their nanostructure - the ...
