    J Homminga
    Orthopedic Research Lab, University of Nijmegen, The Netherlands
    Spine (Phila Pa 1976) 26:1555-61. 2001
    ..Our finite-element models indicated that osteoporosis had a significant effect on the amount of trabecular bone at risk of fracture, which increased from about 1% in healthy vertebrae to about 16% for osteoporotic vertebrae...
  2. ncbi The osteoporotic vertebral structure is well adapted to the loads of daily life, but not to infrequent "error" loads
    J Homminga
    Department of Biomedical Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology, Eindhoven, The Netherlands
    Bone 34:510-6. 2004
    ..If future clinical imaging techniques would enable such high-resolution images to be obtained in vivo, the combination of microCT and microFEA would produce a powerful tool to diagnose osteoporosis...

    J Homminga
    Orthopedic Research Laboratory, University of Nijmegen, Nijmegen, The Netherlands
    Bone 30:759-64. 2002
    ..We conclude that individuals with a history of osteoporotic fractures do not have weaker bone tissue. Architectural and mechanical anisotropy alone renders their bone weaker in the nonprimary loading direction...
  4. ncbi Mechanical consequences of bone loss in cancellous bone
    J C van der Linden
    Department of Orthopedics, Erasmus University Medical Center Rotterdam, The Netherlands
    J Bone Miner Res 16:457-65. 2001
    ..Strains in trabeculae surrounding a cavity increased by up to 1,000 microstrains, which could lead to bone apposition. These results give insight in the mechanical effects of bone remodeling and resorption at trabecular level...
