From histology to micro-CT: Measuring and modeling resorption cavities and their relation to bone competence

Figure 1 Schematic representation of different resorption cavity related measurements on 2D histological sections: Eroded area, erosion perimeter, wall thickness and lamellar thickness. E.Ar: Eroded area; E.Pm: Erosion perimeter; W.Th: Wall thickness; L.Th: Lamellar thickness.
