A novel method for estimating nail-tract bone density for intertrochanteric fractures

Summary: A novel method based on voxel-based morphometry was proposed to investigate the average volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) of femoral head nail tract in patients treated with intramedullary nails—proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) and gamma nail (GN). The results showed that ther...
