Trabecular bone microstructure in the 13-lined ground squirrel tibia. (A) Original view of trabecular architecture as seen with light microscopy. (B) Digitized image used for quantification of trabecular architecture. Tissue area, trabecular bone area and trabecular bone perimeter were quantified and used to calculate trabecular bone architectural properties according to a parallel plate model. BV, bone volume; TV, tissue volume.
