Statistical modeling of the equine third metacarpal bone incorporating morphology and bone mineral density.
The objective of this study was to describe the three-dimensional shape and subchondral bone mineral density (BMD) variation of the equine distal third metacarpal bone (MC3) using a statistical shape model. The association between form and function builds upon previous two-dimensional observations o...
