摘要
Assessment of bone material quality and architectural indicators by means of peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) offers a wide perspective for skeletal research employing noninvasive procedures. Some mechanically-validated examples of these pQCT applications in animal models are described. They concern (a) the analysis of bone mechanostatical interrelationships as shown by experimental ''distribution/quality'' curves, and (b) the noninvasive determination of bone strength. An attractive attempt to extrapolate the latter to human bone studies is also discussed.
