The micro-CT images of the intact humerus in the initial condition and after application of 591 N load increment, DF, displaying areas of overlap (grey), present in the initial condition only (green) and under application of the load increment (purple). The displacement of the entire specimen and the force exerted by the aluminum cup on the specimen (red arrow) is displayed on the left. On the right, the images co-registered at the height on the metaphysis displayed (quasi-frontal 3D representation) and a transversal cross-section (A: A) showing no appreciable movements in the entire bone microstructure
