Figure 2
Exterior (a), transverse thin sections (b, d, f) and virtual-histological sections (c, e, g) of FPDM-V-10581 in anterior (a) and proximal (b)–(g) views. Arrowheads in (a) indicate the level at which each thin section was obtained. Rectangles in (b) and (c) indicate areas magnified in (d)–(g). Black arrowheads in (d)–(g) indicate lines of arrested growth. White arrowheads in (d) and (e) indicate laminar canals, whereas those in (f) and (g) indicate radial canals. Thin-section images and corresponding virtual-histological images are on the same scale. Abbreviations: so, secondary osteon. Scale bars are equal to 20 mm for (a) and 1 mm for (b), (d) and (f). |
