Characterizing Mineral Ellipsoids in New Bone Formation at the Interface of Ti6Al4V Porous Implants (Adv. Mater. Interfaces 24/2023)

Polar 2D Polymer Crystals In article 2300333, Kathryn Grandfield and co‐workers show osteocytes, the bone cells responsible for signaling bone growth and maintenance, together with their cell processes (canaliculi) connecting in the vicinity of a porous titanium dental implant interface. Captured by focused ion beam 3D imaging, the cells are segmented and analyzed to determine their orientation with respect to the newly forming bone.
