Figure 3.
DV/BV sustained in tension was positively correlated with DV/BV generated in compression from the same donor (DV/BVtension = 1.2 + 1.3 * DV/BVcompression). The median damage volume of microdamage sites generated from tension was related to that generated in compression (DV sitetension = 1.6 * DV sitecompression − 9 × 103). The number of damage sites per bone volume was not related between tension and compression.
