Estimation of local anisotropy of plexiform bone: Comparison between depth sensing micro-indentation and Reference Point Indentation (2015)
Journal Article
Dall'Ara, E., Grabowski, P., Zioupos, P., & Viceconti, M. (2015). Estimation of local anisotropy of plexiform bone: Comparison between depth sensing micro-indentation and Reference Point Indentation. Journal of biomechanics, 48(15), 4073-4080. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2015.10.001

The recently developed Reference Point Indentation (RPI) allows the measurements of bone properties at the tissue level in vivo. The goal of this study was to compare the local anisotropic behaviour of bovine plexiform bone measured with depth sensin...

The micro-architecture of human cancellous bone from fracture neck of femur patients in relation to the structural integrity and fracture toughness of the tissue (2015)
Journal Article
Greenwood, C., Clement, J. G., Dicken, A. J., Evans, J. P., Lyburn, I. D., Martin, R. M., …Zioupos, P. (2015). The micro-architecture of human cancellous bone from fracture neck of femur patients in relation to the structural integrity and fracture toughness of the tissue. Bone Reports, 3, 67-75. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bonr.2015.10.001

Osteoporosis is clinically assessed from bone mineral density measurements using dual energy X-ray absorption (DXA). However, these measurements do not always provide an accurate fracture prediction, arguably because DXA does not grapple with 'bone q...

X-ray diffraction from bone employing annular and semi-annular beams (2015)
Journal Article
Dicken, A. J., Evans, J. P., Rogers, K. D., Stone, N., Greenwood, C., Godber, S. X., …Zioupos, P. (2015). X-ray diffraction from bone employing annular and semi-annular beams. Physics in Medicine and Biology, 60(15), 5803-5812. https://doi.org/10.1088/0031-9155/60/15/5803

There is a compelling need for accurate, low cost diagnostics to identify osteo-tissues that are associated with a high risk of fracture within an individual. To satisfy this requirement the quantification of bone characteristics such as 'bone qualit... Read More about X-ray diffraction from bone employing annular and semi-annular beams.

Energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction using an annular beam (2015)
Journal Article
Dicken, A. J., Evans, J. P., Rogers, K. D., Greenwood, C., Godber, S. X., Prokopiou, D., …Zioupos, P. (2015). Energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction using an annular beam. Optics express, 23(10), 13443-13454. https://doi.org/10.1364/OE.23.013443

We demonstrate material phase identification by measuring polychromatic diffraction spots from samples at least 20 mm in diameter and up to 10 mm thick with an energy resolving point detector. Within our method an annular X-ray beam in the form of a... Read More about Energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction using an annular beam.

Can masticatory electromyography be normalised to submaximal bite force? (2015)
Journal Article
Crawford, S. R., Burden, A. M., Yates, J. M., Zioupos, P., & Winwood, K. (2015). Can masticatory electromyography be normalised to submaximal bite force?. Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 42(5), 323-330. https://doi.org/10.1111/joor.12268

The combination of bite force and jaw muscle electromyography (EMG) provides an insight into the performance of the stomatognathic system, especially in relation to dynamic movement tasks. Literature has extensively investigated possible methods for... Read More about Can masticatory electromyography be normalised to submaximal bite force?.
