## Abstract A continuous preparation method for nanoscopic calcium phosphate ceramics is presented. The influence of processing parameters (temperature, time) on the properties of calcium phosphates was studied. Crystallinity, structure, and morphology are important for an application as biodegrada
## Abstract The osteoconductive capacity of fibrillar collagenβbiphasic calcium phosphate composition was compared to autogenous bone in a canine spinal fusion model. All animals underwent a standard intervertebral body fusion (L2βL4) with rigid internal fixation and received either autogenous bone
