Long-term Effects of Mechanical Vibration Stimulus on the Bone Formation of Wistar Rats: An Assessment Method Based on X-rays Images.

Background: Bone is a complex living tissue that adapts itself to the demands of mechanical stimuli such as physical activity and exercise. Whole-body vibration (WBV) is a type of exercise characterized by the transmission of mechanical vibration stimuli produced by a vibrating platform. This study aimed to investigated, in experimental model, the effect of WBV exercise on the bone in different frequencies through X-ray analysis.
