Figure 2

Results of Micro-CT scan and analyses. (a) Micro-CT images of implant and bone 3 months after implantation show a favorable osseointegration. (b) Damage of peri-implant bone under impact load derived from micro-CT scan. Red arrows indicate fractured trabeculae (experiment n = 6, control n = 8). (c) Micro-CT analysis of BV/TV, Tb.Th, Tb.Sp and BMD in the ROI. Values are expressed as means ± SD. *P < 0.05 vs. the control group and #P < 0.05 vs. the 500 N group.
