From: Histological assessment of cortical bone changes in diabetic rats
Region of interest (ROI) and representative images of micro-computed tomography (µCT). a The ROI is set 2 mm proximal to the tibia-fibula junction. b The ROI is displayed on the sagittal image of µCT. c Images of µCT (upper row) and calculated bone mineral density (bottom row). The mineral density of the cortical bone area is significantly higher in the diabetes group than in the control group (p = 0.003).
