Tubercles arising from bones of the skull displace all dermal layers other than a thin, transparent layer of epidermis, creating a ‘window’ onto the bone. In the genus Calumma, the number of these tubercles is sexually dimorphic in most species, suggesting a signalling role, and also ...
Bone mineral density (BMD) of the whole bone or of well-defined subvolumes is another important parameter. At the microscopic level, i.e., if the spatial resolution of the acquired images is better than 100μm, bone architectural assessment is predominantly associated with trabecular structure, ...
