Realizing Bone-mass Generation Through a Density Type Theoretical Archetype [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
The dynamic process of the formation of bone-mass in case of humans is studied to gather precise understanding about the same with the motivation of applying these concepts for healing of bone-fracture and non-unions in non-invasive manner. Three cellular ingredients, osteoblasts, osteoclasts and osteocytes are predominant players in generating new ...

A novel COL1A2 C-propeptide cleavage site mutation causing high bone mass osteogenesis imperfecta with a regional distribution pattern [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is typically characterized by low bone mass and increased bone fragility caused by heterozygous mutations in the type I procollagen genes (COL1A1/COL1A2).

Monte Carlo modeling of radiation dose from radiation therapy with superficial x‐rays

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Superficial x‐rays (50–100 kVp) are used for treating non‐melanoma skin cancer and intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT). At these energies, the photoelectric effect significantly increases absorbed dose to bone compared to soft tissue.
