1 Closed porosity—the porosity determined by presence of pores that are completely isolated from the external surface of the biomaterial. 2 Open porosity—the porosity determined by presence of pores that are connected to the external surface of the biomaterial. 3 Total porosity—the sum of closed and open porosity.
