A novel in silico method to quantify primary stability of screws in trabecular bone

ABSTRACT Insufficient primary stability of screws in bone leads to screw loosening and failure. Unlike conventional continuum finite‐element models, micro‐CT based finite‐element analysis (micro‐FE) is capable of capturing the patient‐specific bone micro‐architecture, providing accurate estimates of...
