Abstract
A method for analysis of growth activity in long bones is presented. An external device composed of two force transducers was fixed on the femur of young rabbits on both sides of the epiphyseal plate. Periodical measurements of axial force variation and bone elongation have been made. Preliminary results have been presented and analysed. The possibility of clinical application, especially in control of the bone growth rate, has been discussed.
