Finite element analysis of the femoral diaphysis of fresh-frozen cadavers with computed tomography and mechanical testing

Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to validate a diaphyseal femoral fracture model using a finite element analysis (FEA) with mechanical testing in fresh-frozen cadavers. Methods We used 18 intact femora (9 right and 9 left) from 9 fresh-frozen cadavers. Specimens were obtained from 5...
