Bone material properties have a direct influence on disorders of the skeleton, such as osteoporotic bone fragility fractures and osteoarthritis. It has been estimated that the direct and indirect cost of all fragility fractures and arthritis is over $20 billion per annum. The impact of this will be far-reaching with the social benefits ranging from earlier and more accurate diagnoses, to the development of preventative strategies to delay the onset of musculoskeletal disorders. These developments will translate into exciting commercial opportunities and overall economic growth and sustainability.

骨材料的性能直接影响骨骼疾病，如骨质疏松性骨折和骨关节炎。据估计，所有脆性骨折和关节炎的直接和间接成本每年超过200亿美元。这将带来深远的社会效益，从更早和更准确的诊断到制定预防策略以延迟肌肉骨骼疾病的发作。这些发展将转化为令人兴奋的商业机会、整体经济增长和可持续性。
