Figure 6

Schematic diagram of fluorescence-guided technology. (a) The fluorescence detection device emits blue fluorescence, and the health bone tissue with osteocytes and collagen fibers appears “apple” green. (b) Necrotic bone showing no or reduced fluorescence. The upper right inset shows a schematic representation of normal bone collagen and osteocytes (a) or necrotic bone and empty lacuna (b).
