Ex Vivo Evaluation of Hip Fracture Risk by Proximal Femur Geometry and Bone Mineral Density in Elderly Chinese Women

BACKGROUND: The incidence of hip fracture is steadily increasing. We aimed to establish a creative approach to precisely estimate the risk of hip fracture by exploring the relationship between hip fracture and bone mineral density (BMD)/femur geometry. MATERIAL/METHODS: Sixteen samples of cadaveric...
