How Analyze was Used
“To compare the bone reconstruction, samples were analysed using PerkinElmer Quantum GX (Micro-CT, PerkinElmer, USA) with the following parameters: voltage, 90 kV; current, 88 μA; field of view, 36 mm; and resolution, 72 μm/pixel. Caliper Micro-CT Analysis Tools (Caliper, USA) in the Analyze software were used for processing and visualization of 3D images. The region of interest was defined as a regular cuboid with 1 mm length, 2 mm width, and 1 mm height. The bone volume to total volume ratio (BV/TV) of the bone tissue in the rabbit jaw bone defect was calculated, expressed as the percentage of new bone formation, and analysed statistically.”
