Size Does Matter: An Integrative In Vivo-In Silico Approach for the Treatment of Critical Size Bone Defects
Figure 6
Predicted tissue fractions at post fracture day (PFD) 90 in bone defects of varying sizes.
The 5 mm defect size will be further investigated in the remaining part of this study. The femurs at the right hand side of the figure schematically represent the bone healing outcome at PFD 90, i.e. the formation of a union or a non-union.
