Experimental and numerical investigations of fluid flow for optimized in vitro stem cell loading in xenografts

In dentofacial surgery, augmentation procedures employing xenografts have become a reliable treatment. Recent studies, however, have shown significant enhance-ments of the in vivo bone tissue augmentation using mesenchymal stem cells loaded into bone grafts. We conducted experimental and numerical i...
