ABSTRACT

Bone is a dynamic and highly vascularized tissue that provides structural support to the body by carrying major biomechanical loads and playing many roles which are essential for the body. The skeleton protects internal organs, supports muscular contraction to create motion, and acts as a stored mineral reservoir that is capable of rapid mobilization on metabolic demand.1,2 Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that major alterations in bone’s structure dramatically affect a patient’s health and quality of life.1
