Fig. 2From: Whole bone testing in small animals: systematic characterization of the mechanical properties of different rodent bones available for rat fracture modelsCorrelation graphs (Bivariate Scattergrams with regression lines and 95% confidence bands). a Correlation graphs of BMC (DEXA, g/cm3) vs. TOT CNT and CRT CNT (pQCT) for femurs. b Correlation graphs of BMC (DEXA, g/cm3) vs. TOT CNT and CRT CNT (pQCT) for tibiae. c Correlation graphs of BMC (DEXA, g/cm3) vs. TOT CNT and CRT CNT (pQCT) for humeri. In summary high correlations between both radiological methods could be achieved. BMC bone mineral content, TOT CNT total content, CRT CNT cortical contentBack to article page
