A Digital Model to Simulate Effects of Bone Architecture Variations on Texture at Spatial Resolutions of CT, HR-pQCT, and μCT Scanners

Figure 5

Structure modifications at a voxel size of 90 𝜇m and a noise level of 30 HU. On the 𝑥-axis, the following measures are plotted. PLM (plate-like model): ratio of rods being deleted; BFM (bone formation model): BV/TV; RLM (rod-like model): number of plates remaining; SMM (surface modification model): width of surface irregularity.
