1. A method of providing consistent, dose controlled application of a graft material to a defect, comprising:
providing a compressible or expandable, porous graft material; determining a density value of the graft material; calculating a target weight of a quantity of the graft material to be applied based on the determined density value; and applying the quantity of graft material representing the target weight calculated to the defect.
