Typical cross-section of the spherical bone model in ABAQUS (left) and the binarized μCT image of the same section (right). After converted from the DICOM image from μCT using Mimics, the finite element mesh models used in the simulation were able to capture most of the geometrical features of the bone samples and reproduce the original structure of the samples.
