The effect of FO on bone structural characteristics by microCT. (a) Representative 2D and 3D images of microCT reconstruction of distal femurs. Scale bar, 500 μm. (b-d) MicroCT analysis of cortical bone parameters: Ct. vBMD, cortical volumetric bone mineral density; Ct. BV/TV, cortical bone volume/total volume; Ct. Th, cortical bone thickness. (e-J) MicroCT analysis of trabecular bone parameters: Tb. vBMD, trabecular volumetric bone mineral density; Tb. BV/TV, trabecular bone volume/total volume; Tb. Th, trabecular thickness; Tb. N, trabecular number; Tb. Sp, trabecular separation; SMI, structure model index. The results are shown as the mean ± SD (n = 6). **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05 versus the NC group and ## P < 0.01, # p < 0.05 versus the HFD group by one-way ANOVA
