Keywords : bone * osteocytes * stereological quantification
Subject RIV: BO - Biophysics
Our aim was to use stereology to quantify the volume fraction of osteocyte lacunes, volume fraction of large blood vessels, numerical density of osteocyte lacunes, volume of osteocyte lacunae and bone surface in series of micro-CT images representing samples of spongy and compact bone of human tibia. The spongy bone had a smaller volume fraction of osteocyte lacunes, a greater numerical density of bone lacunes, a smaller volume of the lacunes within the same bone volume and a greater bone surface density when compared to the compact bone. Stereology provided us with data on hierarchical organization of bone structural heterogeneity with reasonable time costs.
