Abstract

Computed tomography measurements on the radii of 18 women with Colles' fracture of the radius have shown that compared to normal women of the same age they tended to have a smaller bone cross-sectional area in the radius midshaft, a small deficit of cortical bone, and a substantial deficit of trabecular bone in the distal radius.
