Three-dimensional micro-CT reconstructed images of the non-union group. The images were obtained at 2 weeks (a), 4 weeks (c), and 6 weeks (e) after surgery and these were viewed by cutting through the long axis of each tibia in the coronal planes (b, d, and f). The non-union group tibia persisted as fracture gaps throughout all periods (b, d, and f). As time went on, bone absorption widened the fracture gap
