A new sensing paradigm for the vibroacoustic detection of pedicle screw loosening. [PDF]
The current clinical gold standard to assess the condition and detect loosening of pedicle screw implants is radiation-emitting medical imaging. However, solely based on medical imaging, clinicians are not able to reliably identify loose implants in a ...

The vertebral body’s Hounsfield unit (HU) value can credibly reflect patients’ bone mineral density (BMD). Given that poor bone-screw integration initially triggers screw loosening and regional differences in BMD and strength in the vertebral body exist,

Development and validation of a quantitative method to assess pedicle screw loosening in posterior spine instrumentation on plain radiographs. [PDF]
PURPOSE Currently, the diagnosis of pedicle screw (PS) loosening is based on a subjectively assessed halo sign, that is, a radiolucent line around the implant wider than 1 mm in plain radiographs.

Prosthodontic Aspects of Screw Loosening in Dental Implants: A Review [PDF]
Screw loosening remains one of the most frequently reported mechanical complications associated with implant-supported prostheses. Although advances in implant design, materials, and connection geometries have significantly reduced its incidence, screw ...

Investigation of implant internal screw loosening under hyperbaric conditions: An in vitro study
Background and purpose The internal screw has an essential role in carrying abutment and prosthesis loading. Some dental implant patients such as scuba divers, mineworkers, and hyperbaric oxygen patients are exposed to hyperbaric atmospheres.
