Figure 7

(A) Micro CT images (anterior and posterior views) of the mouse knee. The point "a" (femoral epicondyle) is located away from the loader, compared to the point "b" in the tibial side. (B) Potential contributors involved in cortical bone formation with knee loading. The illustration includes alteration in intramedullary pressure, interstitial fluid flow, muscle contraction, and blood perfusion.
