The Effects of Physical Exercise on Osteocyte Lacunar Morphology and Orientation around Bioresorbable Implants
In this study, we used synchrotron radiation micro-computed tomography (SR-CT) to investigate the effect of early post-operative physical exercise at 2, 4, and 6 weeks on osteocyte lacunar distribution and morphology in a Sprague Dawley rat femoral defect model after implantation of a bioresorbable pin. Physical exercise has been shown to improve bone remodeling after fracture, but its effects on…
