Calcium Phosphate Based Three-Dimensional Cold Plotted Bone Scaffolds for Critical Size Bone Defects
Figure 4
MicroCT analysis and quantification. (a) Representative microCT image of an empty defect. (b) Representative microCT image of an autograft control defect. (c) Representative microCT images of implanted β-TCP scaffolds. Asterisk indicates scaffold resorption in animals 1, 2, and 3. (d) Representative microCT images of implanted β-TCP/PMMA scaffolds. Asterisk indicates scaffold resorption in animals 1, 2, and 3. (e) Quantification of the mineralized tissue volume in the defect region. (f) Quantification of the mineral density of the mineralized tissue in the defect region. Size bars indicate 5 mm, the error bars indicate the standard deviation, the asterisk indicates .
