Bone Abstracts

While the importance of interactions between bone and tumors is well-established, the mechanism by which the physical bone microenvironment regulates disease progression is limited by the lack of suitable in vitro models. We have designed 3D Tissue Engineered Constructs (TECs) using microCT imaging in tandem with inkjet 3D printing technology that recapitulate the mechanical and morphometric properties of trabecular bone. 3D-printed TECs exhibited no significant diffe...
