New insights on femoral head trabecular bone directionality in elderly humans using a micro-CT-based analysis
Abstract The trabeculae of the femoral head are organized in response to mechanical forces acting on the bone, becoming increasingly anisotropic with age. This may elevate fracture risk under non-primary loading conditions, such as falls. However, normal trabecular angles and directional patterns ha...
