CT-Based Evaluation of Bone Mineral Density Distribution of Proximal Femur in Patients With Femoral Trochanteric Fracture
A distribution of CT values within the femoral head is characteristic of patients with femoral trochanteric fractures. Using HU values from CT imaging to predict bone fragility preoperatively may aid in assessing the risk of postoperative complications.
