Fig. 6From: Comparison of cortical versus cancellous bone fixation in tendon-to-bone healing with a rat trans-calcaneal suture model for Achilles tendon sleeve avulsionMicro-CT evaluation. A Sagittal micro-CT images of the calcaneus in the cortical group and the cancellous group 4 and 8 weeks after the operation. Yellow boxes represent the regions of interest. B–F Comparison of the bone volume fraction (BV/TV, bone volume/total volume), bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), and trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) between the two groups at 4 and 8 weeks after the operation. *p < 0.05Back to article page
