Morphometric, densitometric and image analyses were carried out to quantify several parameters.
Morphometric, densitometric and mechanical parameters of femur in 112-day old turkeys are shown in Table 4.
The default compartmental and structural segmentation provides the basis for the subsequent densitometric, morphometric, and biomechanical analyses.
Considering lack of basic physiological data on tooth properties in sheep, the aim of the study was to evaluate morphometric, densitometric and mechanical traits of deciduous mandibular incisors, canine and the second premolar - the analyzed teeth had completely developed all their anatomical structures by the slaughter age of 5 months of life.
Considering lack of basic anatomical and physiological data on teeth properties in sheep, the aim of the study was to evaluate morphometric, densitometric and mechanical traits of deciduous mandibular incisor, canine and the second premolar obtained at the slaughter age of 5 months of life.
Image analysis was used to precisely quantitate nuclear morphometric, densitometric, and texture features.
Thus, results from morphometric, densitometric and mechanical evaluation of the teeth may indicate optimal breeding direction of growing sheep.
To perform morphometric, densitometric and mechanical analyses of completely developed deciduous teeth, three incisors (i1 – i3), canine (fourth incisor – i4) and second premolar (p2) were isolated from the left part of the mandible.
Geometric and densitometric specifications were based on a dataset of healthy volunteers and osteopenic patients.
