Purpose To perform a quantitative analysis of the amount of cancellous bone in the distal radius and olecranon process by segmentation of computed tomographic scans. As a secondary analysis, the bone density by Hounsfield units was evaluated at the same sites. Methods Computed tomography angiography...
