A prospective follow up of age related changes in the subchondral bone density of the talus of healthy Labrador Retrievers

A prospective follow up of age related changes in the subchondral bone density of the talus of healthy Labrador Retrievers

Abstract Background During growth, the skeletal structures adapt to the increased loading conditions and mature to a fully-grown skeleton. Subchondral bone density reflects the effect of long-term joint loading and it is expected to change over time. The aim of this study was to describe the long-te...
