Table 1:

Key in vivo animal models for the study of bone mechanobiology. References are shown for the initial report for each model as well as parameterization studies using the model. The models shown are (A) tibial axial loading though surgically-placed wires or pins, (B) avian surgically-isolated ulnar loading, (C) rodent four-point tibial bending, (D) mouse tibial cantilever bending, (E) rodent ulnar axial compression, (F) rodent tibial axial compression, (G) rodent vertebral compression, (H) rabbit distal femur cancellous compression.
