Hello, I was hoping others with more comprehensive French skills might be able to help me with the translation of a phrase from an article. The article is Depreux M. R. and Muller, P. (1953) Differenciation radiologique des os humains et animaux, Trav 26 Congr Int de Med Leg, pp 204-212. The phrase is "fuseau marginal" - my dictionary gives "fuseau" as meaning "spindle", but I was wondering if someone had another way of describing it more in context so I could work out what they mean - it seems to be an important point in the article. Here is the paragraph where it is mentioned: "Mais surtout et ceci représente à notre avis le caractère différentiel essential entre ces radiographies d'os humain foetal et d'os animaux, on note l'existance chez l'animal d'une zone périphérique de condensation osseuse distincte du périoste s'étendant d'une extrémité à l'autre de la diaphyse et constituant une sorte de fuseau marginal. Le présence de ce fuseau sur un fragment diaphysaire nous permet d'en affirmer l'origine animale...." Merci beaucoup for any help!
