An In Vitro Comparative Study of Bioglass and Biologically Derived Hydroxyapatite with Bone Scintigraphy (BS) Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

Four rabbits received human derived HA to their left tibias. After 16 weeks bioglass was implanted to their right tibias. After other 16 weeks bone scintigraphies were taken with 99mTc- MDP. Three phase bone scan images showed no evidence of inflammation and superior vascularization rates at implantation sites. In this study, bioglass demonstrated higher uptake of 99mTc-MDP comparing to HA, suggesting a higher vascularization rate and better osseointegration.
