Imaging of fine structure of bone sample with high coherent X-ray beam and high spatial resolution detector.
In this study, we observed bone specimens of the mouse using a very high coherence beam and high spatial resolution detector (zooming tube: approximately 0.7 micron resolution) and successfully obtained images of the Haversian canal, osteocytes, and osteoclasts.
