Abstract
The goal of this review is to assess the importance of various imaging modalities which can be used in assessing the viability and integrity of the bone allograft. As it is widely in use in majority of major and minor reconstructive procedures.
Highlights
Reconstructive orthopedic procedures widely use bone graft materials to promote new bone formation and bone healing
Both osteogenic cells and bone volume are supplied by an autograft, which will help in bone formation
Osteogenesis, osteoinduction, and osteoconduction are three major processes undergone by bone graft materials which is responsible for new bone growth and formation .[3][4]
Summary
Reconstructive orthopedic procedures widely use bone graft materials to promote new bone formation and bone healing. An allograft in the form of bone chips or morsels, which is more prone to post operative complications as it is taken from the cadaveric donor Both osteogenic cells and bone volume are supplied by an autograft, which will help in bone formation. The primary function of bone graft is through new bone formation and structural support Osteogenesis, osteoinduction, and osteoconduction are three major processes undergone by bone graft materials which is responsible for new bone growth and formation .[3][4]. Autologous platelet-rich plasma can be used along with allografts , which is responsible for osteoinduction by providing growth proteins that are secreted by the platelets Both structural integrity and growth factors can be attained with. The allograft material is detectable on radiographs. [9]
