Summary:
In the present study 38 pairs of femoral bones from human corpses were studied by the photoelasticity method, of which 14 were female and 24 were male.
Tissues were placed in a 30% hydrochloric acid solution and after leaving the femur, special osteotomes were incisioned to show the femoral bones of the femur and the sponge. Each section of the femoral head is then placed on the photoelasticity device for further analysis and study.
All the investigator's observations were placed on an electronic information bank (DATA) to safely extract observations and conclusions.
