a Bone volume fraction defined as bone volume (BV) versus total volume (TV) and b) bone surface density defined as bone surface (BS) versus BV are represented in (i) a heatmap corresponding to their cranial–caudal and ventral–dorsal location, (ii) a scatter plot of the mean values of the ventral and dorsal VOI, (iii) a box-and-whisker plot with the individual values for ventral (circle) and dorsal (square) VOI connected by a line (-), and (iv) a box-and-whisker plot of the sample matched ventral–dorsal ratio.
