Muscle area estimation from cortical bone

Rapid estimation of sunflower leaf area from linear measurements

Estimation of the poroelastic parameters of cortical bone.

Cortical bone has two systems of interconnected channels. The largest of these is the vascular porosity consisting of Haversian and Volkmann's canals, with a diameter of about 50 microm, which contains a.o. blood vessels and nerves. The smaller is the system consisting of the canaliculi and lacunae: the canaliculi are at the submicron level and house the protrusions of the osteocytes. When bone...

Impact on bone and muscle area after spinal cord injury.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes inactivation and consequent unloading of affected skeletal muscle and bone. This cross-sectional study investigated correlations of muscle and bone in spinal cord-injured subjects compared with able-bodied subjects. Thirty-one complete SCI paraplegics were divided according to the neurological level of injury (NLoI) into group A (n=16, above thoracic 7 NLoI, age:...

Toxic Effect of Colchicine on Hippocampal Cortical Area

Background and Objectives: Study of deleterious effect of neurotoxins on the animals' brain is a fascinating research plan. In this project, the damage effect of colchicine on the hippocampal cornu ammonis 1 (CA1) was examined by the studying the hippocampal tissue. Materials and Methods: Injections of colchicine (1-75 μg/rat, intra- hippocampal CA1) were performed in cannulated male Wistar rat...
