## Abstract Distraction osteogenesis of bone or callotasis causes poor bone formation when the distraction rate is beyond the optimal rate. Lowβintensity pulsed ultrasound was reported to enhance fracture healing, treatment of nonunion, and accelerate bone maturation and remodeling during consolida
## Abstract This paper presents an in vivo test for assessment of regenerate axial stiffness after the distraction phase of lengthening therapy. The test result supplements radiography in evaluating bone healing and assists in determining when the regenerate stiffness is sufficient for removal of t
