Collagen fiber structure measurement.

<p>a) Typical WAXS pattern. The circle (dashed line) corresponds to the collagen scatter. b) Angular intensity profile for a single WAXS measurements located in the peripapillary sclera. The degree of fiber alignment, which was defined as the ratio of the aligned scatter to the total scatter was calculated for each WAXS measurement and is mapped in c) for FC74l.
