Bone is highly complex, with multiple hierarchical levels of structure. Micro-CT has been able to provide much information about the properties of bone at several of these levels at the mid-range of bone's hierarchical structure, and it will continue to provide a valuable tool for further characterizing bone in various conditions and explaining mechanisms of bone failure.
