Preparation of trabecular core specimen. (A). Representative μCT images of third lumbar vertebrae (LV3) at 20 μm isotropic resolution from two animals. The images are used to estimate the average surface area available for cylindrical coring in order to avoid the vertebral vein space. (B). A trabecular bone cylinder was cored under water using a computer controlled Sherline milling machine. (C). A mCT image of a core at 12 μm isotropic resolution.
