Gadget To Heal Broken Bones Twice As Fast

Any breakthrough technology that helps our body and health is
technology worth mentioning. A new project by Queensland University of
Technology has created a device that can speed up the time taken to
heal fractured and broken bones by two times. Figuring out how bone
cells heal is the key.

“This device is about trying to grow bone tissue in the
same environment our body grows bones. I have taken bone cells and put
them in the physical environment they would experience in the body, and
then varied the stimulants to extract a beneficial environment for
tissue growth,” he said.

In other words, they have not tried it on a human yet. Let us hope
it’ll be completed before we all get old and start slipping on our
bathroom floor, breaking bones here and there
