A polymer foam replication technique was used to prepare porous scaffolds of 13-93 bioactive glass with a microstructure similar to that of human trabecular bone. The scaffolds, with a porosity of 85 ยฑ 2% and pore size of 100-500 lm, had a compressive strength of 11 ยฑ 1 MPa, and an elastic modulus o
