Diamond wire saws, a wire with teeth in it that cuts bone, and bone 
embedded in methyl methacrylate plastic usually with precise 
cutting.   Delaware Diamond Knives sells the saw if you want to see 
it.  The lady who needed the Oill red O stain had her tissue, probably bone 
embedded in methyl methacrylate, very hard and not in soft tissue state and 
I believe containing a titanium implant.
