Abstract:
PURPOSE: Studies have shown that it is possible to derive direct knowledge about the actual mechanical conditions of the wrist by analyzing the subchondral mineralization. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the distribution of the subchondral bone mineralization of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) noninvasively in living subjects by using computed tomography (CT) osteoabsorptiometry to gain new information about the long-term loading conditions. METHODS: Twenty-two wrist joints were...     »
