Evaluation of heterotopic bone formation by 3D μCT analysis at 8 weeks. (a) Parameter relating bone volume to total implant volume (BV/TV) used to compare noncellularized and cellularized implants displaying high (≥3) histological bone formation. (b) Cross-sectional image reconstruction of noncellularized implant (BV/TV = 54.3%). (c) Cellularized implant (BV/TV = 85.7%) with exuberant histological bone formation (histological score 3). .
