Usefulness of Quantitative Bone Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography for Evaluating the Treatment Response of Bone Metastasis in a Lung Cancer Patient

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2021
We report a case of bone metastasis arising from lung cancer, including quantitative values obtained with bone single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT), which were useful to evaluate the treatment response. The first bone

Hip dislocation associated with ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures: an unusual combination and dilemma regarding head preservation

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2020
Traumatic posterior hip dislocation associated with a fracture of the femoral neck is a rare injury. The combination of posterior dislocation of the femoral head with ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures is even rarer, with only one such case ...

Function-Orientated Structural Analysis of the Proximal Human Femur [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In his model of the biomechanics of the proximal human femur, Friedrich Pauwels assumes a resultant force acting on the femoral head that is created by the partial body weight and the force of the abductor muscles inserting at the greater trochanter ...

Estimation of Length of Femur from its Proximal Segment in Maharashtrian Population [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2019
Introduction: Stature is an important parameter in identification of an individual. It can be calculated from length of long bones especially femur and tibia. Bony markers such as head and neck of femur can used in determining the length of femur and
