McKiernan F, Faciszewski T, Jensen R
J Vasc Interv Radiol . 2006 Sep; 17(9):1479-87. PMID: 16990468
Purpose: To describe the property of latent mobility in osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) and discuss its clinical significance. Materials And Methods: This was a retrospective case series of 14...
