Figure Legend:
A comparison of bone resorption in the proximal femur for different implants. The plots (a), (b), (c), and (d) correspond to immediate postoperative bone density distribution for OSG-1, OSG-2, OSG-3, and initial stem, respectively. The plots (e), (f), (g), and (h) correspond to bone density distribution after bone remodeling for OSG-1, OSG-2, OSG-3, and initial stem, respectively. Negative sign indicates bone resorption and the number indicates average reduction in bone density. Gray-scale variations represent bone density ranges in g cm−3.
