Assessment of trabecular bone structure and angiogenesis in the femoral head of a rat model. A Gross observation. B Representative sagittal micrographs of hematoxylin and eosin staining. C Representative micro-computed tomography (CT) images for the three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of femoral heads in experimental rats. D Representative micro-CT images of femoral heads in the sagittal views. E Quantitative micro-CT analysis of femoral heads for trabecular thickness (Tb. Th), bone tissue volume relative to total tissue volume (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb. N) and trabecular separation (Tb. Sp) (n = 5 per group); * indicated p < 0.05 and ** indicated p < 0.01. F Representative immunofluorescence images of CD31-labeled BMECs in the femoral heads to evaluate the angiogenesis of femoral heads
