Femoral head necrosis (FHN) is a progressive pathology due to the failure of blood supply to the proximal femoral epiphysis, with consequent necrosis of the sub-chondral bone and collapse of the articular cartilage and loss of congruity between the head and the acetabulum. Borrowing the biological
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the moderate survival data of porous tantalum rod implants for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Additionally, some independent prognostic factors for conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) were identified.

OBJECTIVE
To assess the survival and prognostic significance of various demographic and radiographic parameters for conversion into total hip arthroplasty after treatment with a modified porous tantalum implant technology for early and intermediate stages of osteonecrosis of the femoral head
Tantalum rod implant following core decompression is reported to be effective in early stage of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). The purpose of this study was to assess the survivorship and prognostic factors for radiographic progression and conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) after
BACKGROUND
Contraction of obliquely oriented left ventricular (LV) fibers results in a twisting motion of the left ventricle. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of acute human cardiac allograft rejection on LV twist pattern and the twist-volume relation.

Tantalum markers
The effects of intravenous arachidonic acid, a prostaglandin H2 analogue [(15S)-hydroxyl-11 alpha, 9 alpha-(epoxymethano)prosta-5Z,13E-dienoic acid (PGH2-A)], and prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) on lung mechanics and airway diameters were compared using tantalum bronchography in 20 paralyzed,
Arrays of platinum (faradaic) and anodized, sintered tantalum pentoxide (capacitor) electrodes were implanted bilaterally in the subdural space of the parietal cortex of the cat. Two weeks after implantation both types of electrodes were pulsed for seven hours with identical waveforms consisting of
