We developed a new fixing method using titanium alloy wires in order to facilitate the attachment of the greater trochanter in total hip arthroplasty. This wire is composed of Ti-3Al-2.5V by weight. According to the fatigue test in vitro, the titanium alloy wire had better fatigue properties than Ortron 90 wire of the same diameter. In experiments in vivo, both titanium alloy wires and SUS-316L wires were used for the reattachment of the greater trochanter of dogs, and the titanium alloy wires showed better biocompatibility than the latter. Thus, titanium alloy wires seem applicable for the reattachment of the greater trochanter in human total hip arthroplasty.

D008852 Microradiography Production of a radiographic image of a small or very thin object on fine-grained photographic film under conditions which permit subsequent microscopic examination or enlargement of the radiograph at linear magnifications of up to several hundred and with a resolution approaching the resolving power of the photographic emulsion (about 1000 lines per millimeter). Microradiographies
D008855 Microscopy, Electron, Scanning Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.
