An original method for studying the morphometric characteristics of spongy bone tissue was proposed. Using this method the distribution of the density of the spongy bone tissue of the distal metaepiphysis of the radius was studied. A decrease in the content of spongy bone tissue along the longitudinal axis of the bone has been experimentally proved. Modeling the mechanical properties of spongy bone tissue, according to the known versions of models for the elastic modulus of discontinuous media, makes it possible to calculate the behavior of bone tissue in conditions of various types of interaction. The comparison of the elastic moduli obtained according to our data with the results of other researchers has shown their comparability.
