The use of µCT and fractal dimension for fracture prediction in osteoporotic individuals (2019)
Journal Article
Arnold, E., Clement, J., Rogers, K., Garcia-Castro, F., & Greenwood, C. (2020). The use of µCT and fractal dimension for fracture prediction in osteoporotic individuals. Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 103, Article 103585. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmbbm.2019.103585

Osteoporosis (OP) is a widespread condition with commonly associated fracture sites at the hip, vertebra and wrist. This study examines the effects of age and osteoporosis on bone quality by comparing the efficacy of using parameters which indicate b...

Breast Microcalcifications - Novel Biomarkers for Breast Tissue Pathology (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gosling, S., Scott, R., Greenwood, C., Bouzy, P., Nallala, J., Lyburn, I., Stone, N., & Rogers, K. Breast Microcalcifications - Novel Biomarkers for Breast Tissue Pathology

Microcalcifications are a key feature of mammography. Calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite) microcalcifications are associated with both benign and malignant breast tissue and spectroscopic analysis has previously shown microstructure and chemistry vari...

Calcification Microstructure Reflects Breast Tissue Microenvironment (2019)
Journal Article
Gosling, S., Scott, R., Greenwood, C., Bouzy, P., Nallala, J., D. Lyburn, I., Stone, N., & Rogers, K. (2019). Calcification Microstructure Reflects Breast Tissue Microenvironment. Journal of Mammary Gland Biology and Neoplasia, 333-342. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10911-019-09441-3

Microcalcifications are important diagnostic indicators of disease in breast tissue. Tissue microenvironments differ in many aspects between normal and cancerous cells, notably extracellular pH and glycolytic respiration. Hydroxyapatite microcalcific...
