Abstract
Unidirectional pulsating electric fields caused changes in the patterns of growth in rat calvaria grown in organ culture. Morphologic pattern variations were studied by radioautographic techniques. The changes occurred at the negatively charged bone surface. In a strong field, the growth pattern became disoriented.Keywords
