Cross-sectional images of the hard tissue sections (magnification × 40, bar = 1000 μm). The specimens were stained using Van Gieson’s picrofuchsin. The BV (red) in the peripheral regions was obviously decreased in PEEK and CoCrMo groups as compared with that in the control group, while the BV was mildly decreased in the HXLPE group. However, there were no obvious changes in BV in the porous structures among the experimental groups
