Multi-modal imaging for dynamic visualization of osteogenesis and implant degradation in 3D bioprinted scaffolds

monitoring of bone regeneration enables timely diagnosis and intervention by acquiring vital biological parameters. However, an existing gap exists in the availability of effective methodologies for continuous and dynamic monitoring of the bone tissue regeneration process, encompassing the concurrent visualization of bone formation and implant degradation. Here, we present an integrated scaffold designed to facilitate real-time monitoring of both bone formation and implant degradation during the repair of bone defects. Laponite (Lap), CyP-loaded mesoporous silica (CyP@MSNs) and ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (USPIO@SiO
