Whole-body vibration with extremely low-amplitude accelerates early-stage bone defect healing with reducing angiogenesis

Matsumoto Takeshi , Sato Shota , Goto Daichi

This study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of whole-body vibration (WBV) with extremely low-amplitude on early-stage bone healing. Experiments were conducted with an approval of the Animal Research Committee of Osaka University Graduate School of Engineering Science. Male BALB/cByJJcl mice were subjected to a 0.5 mm drill-hole surgery on a tibial diaphysis at 14 weeks of age and divided into three groups (n=8 each) from the day after the surgery, which received ...
