Histological cross-section of a bioreactor initially filled with only synthetic biphasic ceramic scaffold (no autologous bone, no exogenous cells, no growth factors) after implantation against the sheep periosteum (bottom) for 9 weeks. Ceramic scaffold appears gray; bone appears dark pink. Greater bone formation occurs closer to the periosteum than the top of the bioreactor.
