3D osteoarthritic model.

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis mainly affecting population of the age 60 and above. Due to low self-recovery ability of cartilage, extrinsic methods such as drug delivery and artificial cartilage replacement are needed to promote the healing process of osteoarthritic cartilage....
