Imaging the femoral cortex: Thickness, density and mass from clinical CT

There is growing evidence that focal thinning of cortical bone in the proximal femur may predispose a hip to fracture. Detecting such defects in clinical CT is challenging, since cortices may be significantly thinner than the imaging system’s point spread function. We recently proposed a model-fitti...
