Computer system for determination of hip joint contact stress distribution from antero-posterior pelvic radiographIglič, Aleš (Avtor) Kralj-Iglič, Veronika (Avtor) Background. A computer system HIPSTRESS is described. The system can be used for the determination of the contact stress distribution in the hip joint for a known body weight and some characteristic pelvic and hip geometrical parameters which can be determined directly from the standard antero-posteriorradiograph. Conclusions. The system can be applied in clinicalpractice to predict an optimal stress distribution in different operative interventions in the hip.Slovenian Medical Association - Slovenian Association of Radiology, Nuclear Medicine Society, Slovenian Society far Radiotherapy and Oncology, and Slovenian Cancer Society 19992024-01-22 13:31:07Neznano17922Ljubljanaslby Authors
