Abstract
This article describes a noninvasive method to derive quantitative radionuclide data from images of grafted dog mandibles including localizaton of the graft in sequential radionuclide images. The method permits comparison of bone repair activity between experimental subjects and also between selected zones within individual bones, thus objectively defining the pattern of repair.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
