Hypothesis: Coupling between resorption and formation in cancellous bone remodeling is a mechanically controlled event

Coupling is the process that links bone resorption to formation in a temporally and spatially coordinated manner within the remodeling cycle. In order to maintain skeletal integrity, it is of crucial importance that the amount of bone resorbed matches the amount of newly formed bone in each remodeli...
