Figure 2From: Strontium enhances osseointegration of calcium phosphate cement: a histomorphometric pilot study in ovariectomized ratsCircumferential contact index. Example of SPC, 6 months after implantation): On the outer surface of the implant, the length of all circumferential segments with direct contact between cement and bone (b = sum of all red lines) as well as the total implant circumference (c) were measured. Circumferential contact index was defined as (b / c × 100 (%)).Back to article page
