Abstract

This paper reviews the possibilities offered by X-ray micro-CT in bone tissue engineering. This technique provides a fast, nondestructive, and 3D quantification of bone scaffolds, bone ingrowth, and microvascularization. Synchrotron radiation absorption and phase micro-CT offer additional advantages to image newly formed bone in bioceramic scaffolds and pre-bone matrix.
