Preliminary analysis of osteocyte lacunar density in long bones of tetrapods: all measures are bigger in sauropod dinosaurs.
Osteocytes harbour much potential for paleobiological studies.Synchrotron radiation and spectroscopic analyses are providing fascinating data on osteocyte density, size and orientation in fossil taxa.However, such studies may be costly and phi mu dad shirt time consuming.Here we describe an uncomplicated and inexpensive method to measure osteocyte
