Speed-torque relationship for self-tapping bone screw insertion
, 2021 Bone screws are used for fixing implants and stabilizing fractures. Correct torquing of these screws is important for positive patient outcomes. A previously proposed model-based system may increase the accuracy of bone screw insertion, but this depends on the accuracy of the model.
