Development and Testing of X-Ray Imaging-Enhanced Poly-L-Lactide Bone Screws

Nanosized iron oxide particles exhibit osteogenic and radiopaque properties. Thus, iron oxide (Fe(3)O(4)) nanoparticles were incorporated into a biodegradable polymer (poly-L-lactic acid, PLLA) to fabricate a composite bone screw. This multifunctional, 3D printable bone screw was detectable on X-ray...
