In this book, the authors present topical research in the study of the morphology, biomechanics and clinical implications of trabecular and cortical bone. Topics discussed include trabecular bone biomechanics and morphology; cortical bone as an enduring depot of bone-seeking contaminants and the evaluation of cortical bone resportion rate on the basis of a contaminant (90SR) measurement in humans; evaluation of apparent stress and strain at fracture of human trabecular bone under quasi-static compression load using micro-CT finite elements simulation; application of computational modeling to predict the effect of exercise on whole bone strength; advancements in cortical bone imaging; morphology of the pelvis (acetabulum) and femur; the release kinetics of bone morphogenetic proteins from demineralized cortical bone grafts; and preservation of cortical bone in oral and maxillofacial surgery procedures.
