As the application of Raman spectroscopy to study bone has grown over the past decade,
making it a peer technology to FTIR spectroscopy, it has become critical to understand their …

Abstract Purpose of Review While thinning of the cortices or trabeculae weakens bone, age-
related changes in matrix composition also lower fracture resistance. This review …

Raman spectroscopy (RS) is used to analyze the physiochemical properties of bone
because it is non-destructive and requires minimal sample preparation. With over two …

Water constitutes roughly a quarter of the cortical bone by volume yet can greatly influence
mechanical properties and tissue quality. There is a growing appreciation for how water can …

Develo** clinical tools that assess bone matrix quality could improve the assessment of a
person's fracture risk. To determine whether Raman spectroscopy (RS) has such potential …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review surveys recent literature related to cortical bone
fracture mechanics and its application towards understanding bone fragility and hip …

Greater understanding of the determinants of skeletal fragility is highly sought due to the
great burden that bone affecting diseases and fractures have on economies, societies and …

Being independent contributors to bone mechanical resistance at the apparent level, quality
and quantity of bone primary constituents are essential factors in better fracture risk …

Bone strength is a worldwide health concern. Although multiple techniques have been
developed to evaluate bone quality, there are still gaps to be filled. Here we report a non …
