Experimental results: each point expresses the average capacitance value from five independent measures for each fracture healing stage: (a) inflammatory phase; (b) repair phase (soft callus); (c) repair phase (hard callus); and (d) remodeling phase. The 99% CI and 95% CI were computed by standard deviation from the average capacitance found in the five bone samples; e) Capacitance variation observed when the two bone extremities were joined compared to the remodeling phase. A cubic spline data interpolation was used between different measures (data points)
