Omohyoid muscle the body of the hyoid bone, lateral to the insertion of the sternohyoid. The central tendon of this muscle varies much in length and form, and is held in position by a process of the deep cervical fascia, which sheaths it, and is prolonged down to be attached to the clavicle and first rib; it is by this means that the angular form of the muscle is maintained. The tendon overlies the internal jugular vein, and can be used as a landmark for this vein during surgery. Doubling; absence; origin from clavicle; absence or doubling of either belly. The inferior
Artificial bone which is one of the most stable forms of calcium phosphate, makes up about 60 to 65 percent of the bone. The rest of the bone is composed of materials including chondroitin sulfate, keratan sulfate and lipid. Increased research and knowledge regarding the organization, structure of properties of collagen and hydroxyapatite have led to many developments in collagen-based scaffolds in bone tissue engineering. The structure of hydroxyapatite is very similar to that of the original bone, and collagen can act as molecular cables and further improve the biocompatibility of the implant. In the United States, more than 6.5 million bone
