Investigating microarchitectural characteristics of woven bone exposed to ionizing radiation: comparative analysis of two segmentation methods and their impact on trabecular measur... by Tássio Edno Atanásio Pitorro, Milena Suemi Irie, Clara de Oliveira Barbosa Bites, Gabriella Lopes de Rezende Barbosa, Gustavo Davi Rabelo, Priscilla Barbosa Ferreira Soares

“…ROI definition was performed by a single operator using two methods: (a) interactive segmentation, where the woven bone was manually outlined within the bone defect region, and (b) a standardized, predefined rectangular ROI. Bone volume fraction (BV/TV), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular separation (Tb.Sp), trabecular number (Tb.N), bone surface (BS/BV), and fractal dimension (FD) were assessed for both segmentation methods. …”
