Fig. 4

Morphological parameters of the femoral heads in the rats were analyzed by micro-CT. Micro-CT was used to assess bone volume percent (BV/TV %) (a), trabecular bone spacing (Tb.Sp)(b), trabecular number (Tb.N) (c), and trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) (d) in the femoral head epiphysis after induction of ischemic osteonecrosis. At 5 and 10 weeks, the ratio of height to diameter of epiphysis in the ischemic group was lower than that in the control group (e)
