Description

The hypothesis that exposure to weak exogenous electromagnetic field emulates physiological and strain related electrical currents which stimulate the bone formation, has been evaluated in this study. It was observed that a dose dependent increase in 45Ca levels in tibias of animals exposed to sinusoidal EMF full day for 30 days as compared to control animals
