DOIAbstract
<p>The boundary and locations of the neat PLLA screws cannot be distinguished from surrounding tissues after 2 (a) and 4 (c) weeks of healing. With the addition of 20% Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> nanoparticles to the PLLA, the screws exhibited a significant improvement in radiopacity for clinical visibility after 2 (b) and 4 (d) weeks of healing.</p
