Bone healing was evaluated and radiographic union was confirmed with trabecular bridging of fracture.
The bone shows more trabecular branching.
After performing this assessment, each reviewer completed the RUSH checklist with specific questions about each of the cortices and trabecular bridging across the fracture.
Trabecular bridging (CT sign confirming fracture healing) at six weeks showed 81% fracture healing in the group with stimulated fractures versus 55% in the control group[ 14].
Femur neck is composed of more cortical bone whereas lumbar spine is composed of more trabecular bone (27).
It was developed in an effort to standardize hip fracture healing assessment and incorporated several definitions of fracture healing found in the literature, including cortical and trabecular bridging and fracture line disappearance.
Neutron images also showed that in the innermost layer of the vertebral bodies the trabecular bone forms trabecular bridges that follow a regular pattern across the ankylosed areas (Figure 2G, Video S4).
More Bridges Burned than Bridges of Madison County.
Consequently, more polymer bridging would form.
"That bridge is more than a bridge: it's alive, it speaks to people.
