Abstract:
PURPOSE: An apparatus for designing custom-made prosthesis based on bone density measurement is provided to supply the position information of a bone fixing screw and the design variable of the prosthesis by restructuring a 3D image having visualized bone density information. CONSTITUTION: An image processing device(200) performs a CT image input stage(S210). A contour line is detected according to a threshold value(S220). The bone density is measured and a color map is set according to the distribution of the bone density(S230). The image processing device performs a 3D bone image recomposition stage(S240). The bone density is visualized on the 3D bone image(S250). A design device(300) decides the insertion position and the size of the prosthesis using the 3D bone image(S310). The location, the size and the number of bone fixing screws are determined(S320). The design device accurately designs the prosthesis for a patient(S330).
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for preparing a delivery system for supporting physiologically active growth factors which are necessary for cell differentiation and proliferation is provided to maximize stem cell differentiation ability in vitro. CONSTITUTION: A growth factor delivery system comprises a core and shell structure containing two kinds of ingredients which are necessary for cell differentiation or proliferation. The delivery system is in the form of a microsphere of 100-400 um in dianeter. The delivery system is treated with a crosslinking agent of ethyl dimethyl amino propyl carbodiimide, genipin, or glutaraldehyde in the shell. A method for preparing the delivery system comprises: a step of preparing a polymeric microsphere containing a first ingredient needed for cell differentiation or proliferation; and a step of introducing the polymeric microsphere into other polymers containing a second ingredient needed for cell differentiation or proliferation.
