Osteohistological sampling on different bones of theropod dinosaur documents discrepant age record, growth, and metabolism. This could result unprecise paleobiological inferences if samplings are based on single bones. However, multi‐bone sampling can attenuate these discrepancies, helping to infer growth dynamics and physiology of these extinct ...

Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

In this study we used a combined computed tomographic and archaeogenetic approach to analyse a skull and vertebra with lytic lesions from a disturbed grave in the Čunkāni‐Dreņģeri cemetery in Latvia, dated to 10th century CE. Both methodologies were used to evaluate a proposed differential diagnosis of multiple myeloma, metastatic carcinoma and bone ...
