A mechanical model for predicting the probability of osteoporotic hip fractures based in DXA measurements and finite element simulation
BACKGROUND: Osteoporotic hip fractures represent major cause of disability, loss of quality of life and even mortality among the elderly population. Decisions on drug therapy are based on the assessment of risk factors for fracture, from BMD measurements. The combination of biomechanical models with...
