of hip fractures.

X-ray of the

hips of a 78 year old male who had a fall. On the first X-ray (here), skin folds were projected over the fracture, but these images in different projections more clearly show the fracture. It was further confirmed by a CT scan (here), as a pertrochanteric hip fracture.
