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