Macroscopic and radiologic images of the groups of non-ovariectomized and bilaterally ovariectomized rats. Note the absence of infections and bone rarefaction that would indicate an intense immune response to the scaffolds. (a) Macroscopic image of the defect area in the left tibia after induced painless death. (b) Macroscopic image of the dissected left tibia. (c) Radiographic image of the left tibia. The arrows indicate the bone defect area in the proximal metaphysis of the left tibia.
