Research Abstract |
This study evaluated angiogenesis in rat non-critical and critical calvarial flat bone defects using in vivo micro-CT. Critical- and non-critical-sized calvarial bone defects showed bone regeneration and angiogenesis around the midsagittal suture. New blood vessel networks were observed around defects of both sizes. Angiogenesis preceded bone regeneration around critical- and non-critical-sized calvarialbone defects. Angiogenesis led to full bone formation in non-critical-sized defects
