Abstract:
Objective To investigate the repair effect of low intensity ultrasound on radioactive mandibule bone to provide new idea for prevention of osteoradionecrosis of the mandibule after irradiation.Methods The animal models of radioactive mandibular injury were made and treated with low intensity ultrasound.Low intensity ultrasound treatment group ( Group Ⅱ ) and not with low intensity ultrasound treatment group (Group Ⅰ ) were observed by microvessel density detection,micro-CT,ponceau trichrome stain and so on,and compared with control group.Then,the obtained data were statistically analyzed.Results The animal models of radioactive mandibular injury were successfully established.The microvessel density in Group Ⅱ was greater than that in Group Ⅰ.The bone volume fraction,trabecular thickness,bone surface/bone volume and the trabecular number in Group Ⅱ were significantly larger than those in Group Ⅰ (P ＜ 0.05).The ponceau trichrome staining showed that the osteocytes largely disappeared and that the cancellous bone trabecular atrophied in Group Ⅰ,while new bone formation,trabecular and numerous osteoblasts around trabecular were largely observed in Group Ⅱ.Conclusion Low intensity ultrasound has a good recovery effect on bone tissue after irradiation.
