quantifying changes in the spatial structure of trabecular bone
- We apply recently introduced measures of complexity for the structural quantification of distal tibial bone. For the first time, we are able to investigate the temporal structural alteration of trabecular bone. Based on four patients, we show how the bone may alter due to temporal immobilization.
