Micro-CT analysis of trabecular and cortical bone of the femur. (a) Femur tissue. Trabecular bone is from the part nearby the metaphysical area. Cortical bone is from mid-shaft. (b, c) Representative parameters of trabecular and cortical bone, respectively. *P<0.05. There were seven mice in each group used for the statistical analyses. BArea, bone area; BV/TV, bone volume/the total volume; CT, computed tomography; Ct.Th, cortical bone thickness; KO, knock out; TArea, the total area; Tb.N, trabecular number; Tb.Sp, trabecular separation; Tb.Th, trabecular thickness; WT, wild type.
