Non-invasive assessment of hip fracture risk in elderly people

没有福尔斯，没有骨折-这将是拟议的研究的主要好处。最重要的成果将是新的计算工具，以提高目前对老年人福尔斯和骨脆性生物力学的理解，这反过来将有助于降低与髋部骨折治疗和管理相关的医疗费用。 人体运动的现实模型和计算机模拟可以在澳大利亚三大行业中发挥关键作用：医疗保健，通过诊断和治疗运动障碍;体育，通过为精英运动员开发个性化训练计划;以及娱乐，通过开发视频/数字游戏和动画电影。

No falls, no fractures - this will be the main benefit of the proposed research. The most significant outcome will be new computational tools to improve current understanding of the biomechanics of falls and bone fragility in elderly people, which, in turn, will help to reduce healthcare costs associated with the treatment and management of hip fractures. Realistic models and computer simulations of human movement can play a pivotal role in three of Australia's largest industries: healthcare, through the diagnosis and treatment of movement disorders; sports, through the development of personalized training programs for elite athletes; and entertainment, through the development of video/digital games and animated films.
