Fig. 3From: Influence of femoral bowing on stress distribution of the proximal femur: a three-dimensional finite element analysisRegion setting for stress measurement: A circle was drawn around the femoral head in the superior field of view, and the neck was defined from the outline of the circle of the femoral head to the intertrochanteric ridge, and the trochanter region was defined from the intertrochanteric ridge to the outer edge of the greater trochanterBack to article page
