Bone Properties
Studying bone properties can help reveal the impact of treatments for aging or bone disease. We can examine bone microarchitecture using microCT scanning and gather parameters for bone density, cortical dimensions and trabecular properties such as spacing, number, and volume. We can also examine bone histology, such as cell number, and tensile and mechanical properties using tests such three-point bending.

In-Vivo Bone Models
In-vivo models allow us to study bone over time. We can help you examine bone loading, such as in ulnar or tibial loading with dynamic histomorphometry. We can also examine the rate of bone growth over time or look at fracture healing and treatment impact on growth or healing rates.
