Introduction: Research on biomaterials for bone regeneration generates a plethora of new biomaterials requiring evaluation with reliable and comparable methods of biocompatibility and functionality for clinical translation. To reduce the burden of in vivo assessment, there is a need for refined in vitro assays that are predictive of in vivo outcomes. This retrospective study correlated in vitro results with in vivo outcomes observed...
