Figure 4

External morphology of the pathological Lufengosaurus huenei sauropod rib reconstructed from surface render of micro-computed tomographic (MCT) image volume. Schematic overlay of the photograph highlights the regions of interest (ROI) based on the respective MCT volumes ROIA and ROIB. Each ROI shows (1) lateral view; (2) medial view; (3) anterior (cranial) view; (4) posterior (caudal) view. Note, the section lines labelled A to F indicate the anatomical locations of MCT orthoslices presented in Fig. 5. Photograph by Lida Xing. Volume renders produced by P.S.R.-Q.
