Transverse and vertical slices of cylindrical cores from (A) human vertebral body, (B) human femoral neck and (C) canine vertebral body showing that the canine cylindrical cores satisfies the continuum assumption. The specimen diameters for the human vertebral body (d=8 mm), human femoral neck (d=8 mm) and canine vertebral body (d=3.5 mm) were scaled to the same size for visual comparison.
