... prosthetics X-ray absorption yield strength Cup stability after cementless total hip arthroplasty is necessary to allow ingrowth of bone into the porous surface of the cup ( 1 2 3 4 5 ). The pores of a cementless acetabular cup generally are in the range of 100 – 400 μ m ( 6 7...

.... This study applied X-ray diffraction to the skin tissue-covered Ti. Characteristic X-rays of Mo K α were used and the X-rays diffracted from the Ti were detected through the covering skin tissue. The X-ray absorption by skin tissue is large under the diffracted X-rays detected in low angles because...
