The Relationship between Trabecular Bone Structure Modeling Methods and the Elastic Modulus as Calculated by FEM
Trabecular bone cores were collected from the femoral head at the time of surgery (hip arthroplasty). Investigated were 42 specimens, from patients with osteoporosis and coxarthrosis. The cores were scanned used computer microtomography (microCT) system at an isotropic spatial resolution of 36 micro...
