Titanium and its alloys, like the majority of metallic implant materials, release passive metal dissolution products. This raises the issues of amount and fate, i.e. transport, storage, and/or excretion of these metal dissolution products. In this paper we document titanium levels in tissues local t

## Abstract A novel porous titanium foam implant has recently been developed to enhance biological fixation of orthopaedic implants to bone. The aim of this study was to examine the mechanical and histological characteristics of bone apposition into two different pore sizes of this titanium foam (5
## Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the bone response to commercially pure titanium grade I and titanium alloy grade V (90% Ti, 6% Al, and 4% V, depicted Ti6Al4V) after 8 weeks in rabbit tibia. Interference microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used for surface analyses. Tr
The purpose of this study was to compare hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium (Ti) and HAcoated cobalt-chrome (CoCr) implants in the distal femur of the rabbit by evaluating bone apposition and interfacial shear strength. Bilateral cylindrical implants with a plasma sprayed 50-jm thick HA coating wer
## Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical properties and ultrastructure of the bone response of partly laserβmodified Ti6Al4V implants compared with turned, machined implants after 8 weeks in rabbit. The surface analyses performed with interference microscopy and electron
