Innovative 3D Model of the Human Middle Ear in High Resolution with a Histological Microgrinding Method: A Feasibility Study and Comparison with CT

Figure 4

3D models of the μCT data of the separated scanned incus (a, c) and malleus (b, d) in the lateral (a, b) and medial aspect (c, d), respectively. In the half-transparent ossicles the bone structure is colored in yellow, the not calcified inner structures are colored in blue, and nutrient foramina are marked in red.
