Accuracy and reproducibility of mouse cortical bone microporosity as quantified by desktop microcomputed tomography.

Bone's microporosity plays important roles in bone biology and bone mechanical quality. In this study, we explored the accuracy and reproducibility of nondestructive desktop μCT for 3D visualization and subsequent morphometric analysis of mouse cortical bone microporosity including the vascular...
