Generalized Net Model of Proximal Humeral Fractures Diagnosing
Abstract
Proximal humeral fractures are common injuries and they occur primarily in older patients. They represent 5.7% of diagnosed fractures and are the third most common fracture pattern seen in elderly. Fractures of the proximal humerus usually occur after a high or low energy fall. Due to the variety of factors, which influence the classification, and the diagnosis of these fractures, early detection is the key factor for an appropriate treatment. Accordingly, in this study we present a successful example of Generalized Nets application in traumatology and propose a novel approach to timely detection and diagnosing of proximal humeral fractures.
