Subject-specific finite element models of long bones: An in vitro evaluation of the overall accuracy.

The determination of the mechanical stresses induced in human bones is of great importance in both research and clinical practice. Since the stresses in bones cannot be measured non-invasively in vivo, the only way to estimate them is through subject-specific finite element modelling. Several method...
