Sections of trabecular spongiosa from the cranium and pelvis of a 66-year male were cored and subjected to microCT scanning. The resulting images were then digitally processed to yield 3D chord-length distributions across the marrow cavities and the bone trabeculae. See Contents of September 2005, Volume 89, Number 3 article by Amish P. Shah on page 199 for more information.
