Abstract:
In an aspect the invention is a method of preparing a cell or tissue implant for insertion into a patient in need of treatment by obtaining a transplantable cell population, culturing the cell population in a culture media and exposing the cell population to a sonic or ultrasonic stimulation, wherein the stimulation provides a capability for an enhanced implant outcome parameter. The method provides enhanced autologous bone implant procedures by reducing the time required for a patient's own cells to sufficiently undergo osteogenesis, thereby reducing the waiting time for an autologous bone implant. The extent of osteogenesis is optionally monitored non-invasively by magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
