The presence of Wormian bones increases the fracture resistance of equine cranial bone.
Wormian (intrasutural) bones are small, irregular bones, that are found in the cranial sutures of the skull. The occurrence of Wormian bones in human skulls has been well documented but few studies have detected the presence of such bones in domestic ...

Radiological Differences in Chondroblastoma of Tubular and Non-Tubular Bones [PDF]
Introduction: Chondroblastomas are rare bone tumours accounting for only 1% all primary bone tumours. Epiphysis of long bones are most commonly affected, where as the flat bones, short tubular bones and apophysis of long bones are comparatively less ...

Contrasting the crystallinity indicators of heated and diagenetically altered bone mineral [PDF]
Modifications to bone mineral as a result of diagenesis or heating include a marked increase in crystallinity. Although these processes are not completely understood a number of simple, pragmatic approaches are in general use to quantify crystallinity ...
