In Vivo Assessment of Elasticity of Child Rib Cortical Bone Using Quantitative Computed Tomography

Elasticity of the child rib cortical bone is poorly known due to the difficulties in obtaining specimens to perform conventional tests. It was shown on the femoral cortical bone that elasticity is strongly correlated with density for both children and adults through a unique relationship. Thus, it i...
