Abstract EN
To date, fiber reinforce scaffolds have been largely applied to repair hard and soft tissues.
Meanwhile, monitoring the scaffolds for long periods in vivo is recognized as a crucial issue before its wide use.
As a consequence, there is a growing need for noninvasive and convenient methods to analyze the implantation remolding process in situ and in real time.
In this paper, diagnostic medical ultrasound was used to monitor the in vivo bone formation and degradation process of the novel mineralized collagen fiber reinforced composite which is synthesized by chitosan (CS), nanohydroxyapatite (nHA), and collagen fiber (Col).
To observe the impact of cells on bone remodeling process, the scaffolds were planted into the back of the SD rats with and without rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs).
Systematic data of scaffolds in vivo was extracted from ultrasound images.
Significant consistency between the data from the ultrasound and DXA could be observed P<0.05.
This indicated that ultrasound may serve as a feasible alternative for noninvasive monitoring the evolution of scaffolds in situ during cell growth.
