  • Bone mechanical props for human OI

    Hello.

    Once again i must appeal to the greater experience and wonderfully
    helpful attitude of the Biomch-l community.

    i have just completed a study on mouse OI (osteogenesis imperfecta)
    bones and looking in the literature (including firstsearch, medline,
    etc) i could not find any data on similar studies on human OI bones.
    (B Alman and P Frasca, J Orthop Research, 1987 was the only one that
    had any data from real mechanical testing).

    i would like to know if any one knows of any data available of
    elasticity, strength, or anisotropy from mechanical or ultrasonic
    testing of human OI bones?

    Please reply to:
