The article describes the concept of measurement of the mechanical strength of trabecular bone dissected from human femoral head. When the studies are performed based on the human trabecular bone, there is a risk that correlation can be not achieved due to high discrepancy in the distribution of the bone density and mechanical properties. The compressive tests and X-ray microcomputed tomography with associated density phantom were used to deliver quantitative data. There is a conclusion that the selection of the region in the femoral head has to be performed very carefully. The region where cylinder is dissected can influence the results and produce fake data, which could not be correlated in the density of bone.
