Quantitative and morphological studies of the bones by mathematical morphology--theory and practice of mathematical morphology.
To quantitatively analyze internal bone structures, trabecular bones were quantitatively studied through the application of mathematical morphology. Mathematical morphology considers the shape of the analyze objects and utilizes image processing theory in an approach that is extremely effective on for studying the complex shapes of trabecular bones. This paper describes quantitative studies made of trabecular bone density and width, trabecular specific length per unit area, and trabecular bone orientation.
