Experimental hip fracture load can be predicted from plain radiography by combined analysis of trabecular bone structure and bone geometry

Summary Computerized analysis of the trabecular structure was used to test whether femur failure load can be estimated from radiographs. The study showed that combined analysis of trabecular bone structure and geometry predicts in vitro failure load with similar accuracy as DXA. Introduction Since c...
