Creating Rigidly Stabilized Fractures for Assessing Intramembranous Ossification, Distraction Osteogenesis, or Healing of Critical Sized Defects
Published on: April 11, 2012
Abstract:
This article reviews the anatomy, physiology and biomechanics of bone and describes various types of fractures. It discusses the comparative advantages of different imaging techniques for fracture diagnosis and the radiographic characteristics of some common fractures. The article concludes with a description of fixation techniques and the role of imaging after treatment.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
