Total resorption surface has been measured under ordinary light and polarized light in trabecular iliac crest bone from 57 healthy subjects and 40 patients with privational or malabsorption metabolic bone disease. Results obtained with the two methods were similar, although values for total resorption surface measured under polarized light were usually lower than those obtained under ordinary light in both groups of subjects studied. This most likely reflects the greater accuracy in the microscopic identification of resorption surface under polarized light.
在普通光和偏振光下，对57名健康受试者以及40名患有营养缺乏或吸收不良代谢性骨病的患者的髂嵴小梁骨的总吸收表面积进行了测量。尽管在两组研究对象中，偏振光下测得的总吸收表面积值通常低于普通光下测得的值，但两种方法得到的结果相似。这很可能反映出偏振光下对吸收表面进行微观识别时具有更高的准确性。
