| Comments |
"Table 4.1 shows the volumes of the skeletons of
Reference Male and Reference Female as derived from the reference mass data
from Publication 89 (ICRP, 2002) and mass density data of ICRU Report 46
(ICRU, 1992)...The segmented cortical bone has the reference mass of Publication 89 (ICRP,
2002), and although no direct segmentation of the trabecular bone and active and
inactive marrow in the spongiosa was possible at the given voxel resolution, the volume
and composition of the spongiosa is such that all skeletal constituents (mineral
bone, cartilage, active and inactive marrow, and miscellaneous tissues) are incorporated
in the skeleton at their reference masses as given in Table 4.1." |
