Evaluating bone augmentation materials in human mandibles: Synchrotron radiation-based micro computed tomography of cores from hollow drills taken before the insertion of dental implants

摘要

Synchrotron radiation based micro computed tomography (SRμCT) combined with conventional histology is a suitable technique to asses-the-quantlilfty of-the bone formation using different augmentation materials regarding bono formation and material resorbtion. Tomography offers-yields the full three dimensional3D information.Its and the combination with histology allows differentiating between the phases of osteogenesis.
