Towards the in vivo prediction of fragility fractures with Raman spectroscopy

Fragility fractures, those fractures which result from low level trauma, have a large and growing socio‐economic cost in countries with aging populations. Bone‐density‐based assessment techniques are vital for identifying populations that are at higher risk of fracture, but do not have high sensitiv...
