Predicting ex vivo failure loads in human metatarsals using bone strength indices derived from volumetric quantitative computed tomography

We investigated the capacity of bone quantity and bone geometric strength indices to predict ultimate force in the human second metatarsal (Met2) and third metatarsal (Met3). Intact lower extremity cadaver samples were measured using clinical, volumetric quantitative computed tomography (vQCT) with...
