Abstract:
We present results from seven patients with closed mid-shaft tibial fractures and question the hypothesis that transverse wave response ratio analysis could be used to assess the progress of healing fractures. No correlation could be found between the response ratio and the post-fracture time as an indicator of bone fracture healing.
