Abstract:
3-D bone architecture can now be measured by micro-computer tomography or micro-magnetic resonance imaging. The principles of the micro-computer technique is reviewed and new architectural parameters can be computed. In addition, the method allows the contruction of polymer models by stereolithography, a method that can be used to perform repetitive mechanical studies on the same bone sample. These non destructive methods are interesting in the pre-clinical studies on bone diseases and in the investigation of animal trials on new pharmacological compounds active on bone.

Gross Anatomy of Bone
The diaphysis is the tubular shaft that runs between the proximal and distal ends of the bone. The walls of the diaphysis are composed of dense and hard compact bone made of numerous osteons — the functional unit of the compact bone. The hollow region in the diaphysis is called the medullary cavity, which harbors the bone marrow. In infants and children, this marrow cavity is filled with red marrow, whereas in adults, it...
