Establishing a Diaphyseal Femur Fracture Model in Mice
Published on: December 9, 2022
Abstract:
Requests for '? fractured neck of femur' form a major part of the work in the accident and emergency X-ray department today. Good quality radiographs are essential for the correct diagnosis to be made. The type of fracture shown, together with age and health of the patient, will determine the repair undertaken. Regular radiography of the fracture site will demonstrate any subsequent local complications.
