femoral analysis

Femoral analysis involves examining the femur, the thighbone, to assess its structure, strength, and health. This process can include imaging techniques like X-rays or DEXA scans to measure bone density, detect fractures, or identify bone diseases such as osteoporosis. It helps determine the risk of fractures, guide treatment plans, and monitor bone healing or deterioration over time. Essentially, femoral analysis provides valuable information about the condition of one of the body's main weight-bearing bones, supporting overall musculoskeletal health assessment and management.
