It has been known for quite some time that bone growth is stimulated by DC electrical currents. However, only relatively recently implantable stimulators have been developed for the application. In 1988 Biomet acquired Electrobiology Inc. (EBI) in Parsippany, NJ, a leader in bone-growth electrical stimulation and bone external fixation markets. EBI’s OsteoGen™ Bone Growth Stimulator is marketed by Biomet Inc.
