From: Time-elapsed microstructural imaging of failure of the reverse shoulder implant
The micro-CT longitudinal cross-section images of the implanted humerus under non-destructive physiological load (A, C) and after failure (B, D). The images are co-registered to those in the initial condition, using the distal part of the specimen as a reference (yellow box). The compressive force exerted by the aluminum cup on the specimen (red arrow). Details of implant and trabeculae movements are also displayed along a sagittal and coronal section
