N2  - An experimental study of the electrical impedance of cortical bone and medullary cavity and on the effect of a D.C. or a periodically interrupted D.C. on the healing of fractures in rabbits, suggests that the bone behaves as a capacitance of about 20 muF in parallel with a high D.C. resistance. Also a 10 muA periodically interrupted D.C. current stimulates osteogenesis.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
