The contribution of experimental in vivo models to understanding the mechanisms of adaptation to mechanical loading in bone

Changing loading regimens by natural means such as exercise, with or without interference such as osteotomy, has provided useful information on the structure:function relationship in bone tissue. However, the greatest precision in defining those aspects of the overall strain environment that influen...
