Hi Linda,

The url above needs an html to work:
http://depts.washington.edu/bonebio/bonAbout/histo/histo.html

Also, which two images should we download? Is the image I attached the healthy bone tissue?

If not, please upload the healthy one plus the one with osteoporosis.

Thanks,---Carla

Another site that shows the two bones side by side would be
