Specimens of Tyrannosaurus and colleagues announced the recovery of soft tissue from the marrow cavity of a fossilized leg bone (a 1.15 m long femur), from a 68-million-year-old "Tyrannosaurus". The bone had been intentionally, though reluctantly, broken for shipping and then not preserved in the normal manner, specifically because Schweitzer was hoping to test it for soft tissue.

Flexible, bifurcating blood vessels and fibrous but elastic bone matrix tissue were recognized. In addition, microstructures resembling blood cells were found inside the matrix and vessels. The
Soft tissue disorder injuries. This area of expertise has become known as soft tissue therapy and is rapidly expanding as the technology continues to improve the ability of these specialists to identify problem areas more quickly.

Sometimes the term "soft tissue rheumatic disorders" is used to describe these conditions. Soft tissue disorder Soft tissue disorders are medical conditions affecting soft tissue.
