Diagram of the physiologically relevant length scales at which to measure heterogeneity in trabecular bone. This review focuses on heterogeneity at the millimeter-scale (bulk tissue), the mesoscale (single trabeculae), and the microscale. Techniques that can be used to assess both mechanical and compositional properties of bone are included, along with the length scale at which they are relevant. Adapted with permission from Ref.
