[Characteristics of the articulation heads in the elbow joint in relation to flexor-extension movements].

The angles involved in the physiological movements of the humero-ulnar joint have been studied by a semiautomatic image analyzer on 50 dried humeri and 50 dried ulnae and on 50 radiographs of normal elbow joints (22 male and 28 female). The angle (A) formed by the diaphyseal axis and the lower humeral epiphysis equals 34 degrees +/- 3.97 (media + s.

[Determination of bone density of the macerated human radius. Comparison of diverse densitometry methods: computerized axial tomography and single photon ray densitometry].

Bone mineral content (BMC) assays are widely used in clinical practice. The most common techniques in vivo are computed axial tomography (CT) and single photon ray densitometry (SPA). The two techniques were compared in studies of macerated bone (16 macerated radii of both sexes).

[Renal volume and human somatic type].

The abdominal C. T. of 128 patients (45 women and 83 men) aged more than 25, without any history of renal disease, have been analyzed by an evaluation computer.
