Fig. 4

Allometric scaling in trabecular parameters. Each plot shows the relation between the trabecular parameter and edge length of the cubic VOI (vl), the latter serving as proxy for body mass (see text). Raw data were plotted on log-log scale. r2 - coefficient of determination, p - p-value of the regression. a-c Degree of anisotropy DA, trabecular thickness TbTh and trabecular separation TbSp scale with negative allometry. d-f Bone volume fraction BV/TV, connectivity density ConnD and bone surface density BS/BV scale with positive allometry
