Static and dynamic histomorphometry

Static and dynamic histomorphometry are methods used to study bone tissue. Static histomorphometry analyzes bone structure at a single moment, measuring features like bone thickness and cell presence to assess bone health. Dynamic histomorphometry, on the other hand, evaluates bone formation over time by tracking changes—such as how quickly new bone is laid down—often using markers or labels that highlight active growth. Together, these approaches help researchers understand bone strength, turnover, and the effects of treatments or diseases on bone quality.
