Abstract
Micro-CT based vascular morphometry demonstrated differences between epi-, meta- and diaphysis in the non-injured bone as well as differences between the critical size defect and the non-injured metaphysis. As angiogenesis is a crucial prerequisite that precedes osteogenesis, our results may influence further evaluation of osteoconductive or osteogenic biomaterials in this small animal model of osteoporosis.
