Preferred Label : Magnesium-based Bone Void Filler;
NCIt synonyms : Magnesium-based BVF;
NCIt definition : An injectable magnesium oxide-based bone void filler (BVF) with potential osteoconductive
properties. Upon injection into bony voids or defects, the magnesium-based BVF mimics
cancellous bone and provides a supportive scaffold to facilitate the bone healing
process. Magnesium contributes to the structural development of bone and may potentially
increase proliferation of bone marrow stromal cells and improve attachment and growth
of osteoblasts.;
