Abstract

UNLABELLED: BMD, bone microarchitecture, and bone mechanical properties assessed in vivo by finite element analysis were associated with wrist fracture in postmenopausal women. INTRODUCTION: Many fractures occur in individuals with normal BMD. Assessment of bone mechanical properties by finite eleme...
