Bone tissue mechanical properties are deemed a key component of bone strength, but their assessment requires invasive procedures. Here we validate a new instrument, a reference point indentation (RPI) instrument, for measuring these tissue properties in vivo. The RPI instrument performs bone microin

Two conflicting theories exist concerning the stress pattern for the proximal lateral aspect of the human femur. According to the classic theory of Pauwels, a bending moment on the femur leads to compression medially and to tension laterally. The alternative theory is that muscle forces contribute t
