3-D Structural Changes in Subchondral Bone and the Effect of Bisphosphonate Intervention in Early Osteoarthritis

This study aims to observe the 3-D structural changes in subchondral bone and the effects of bisphosphonate intervention in the early unsteady stage of the knee joint. Sixty healthy male New Zealand white rabbits were divided into the model group (n= 24), the bisphosphonate (Bis) group (n= 24), and...
