High-speed x-ray characterizes fracture incidence and bone-implant motion during a fall from standing
These results demonstrate the merit of high-speed x-ray for studying periprosthetic fracture, which is of increasing relevance due to increasing populations with orthopedic hardware. Application of this method advances our understanding of impact-related biomechanics and fracture mechanics during a clinically-relevant fall from standing.
