Figure 1
Post-Surgery Radiographs. Shown are radiographs of distal femur defects filled with placebo hydrogel inserts (blanks) immediate after surgery (a) or 3 weeks later (b-c). The radiographs revealed a range of healing from partially healed (b), to fully healed (c). Periosteal bone formation was evident in many samples (b).
