This animal study evaluated whether daily pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) treatments improve delayed fracture healing in skeletally mature ovariectomized (OVX) rats. By 6 weeks, PEMF-treated rats showed improved hard callus elastic modulus and radiographic evidence of better callus bridging compared with sham…
