A novel approach to finite element analysis of hip fractures due to sideways falls

There is currently a disagreement between the hips that today???s screening techniques identify as likely to fracture and those that actually fracture. Specimen-specific finite element (FE) analysis based on computed tomography (CT) data has been presented as a more sensitive technique than standard...
