Detection of an occult acute hip fracture through recognition of a cold fracture line is important because of the associated therapeutic, economic, and medicolegal implications.}, issn = {0091-4916}, URL = {https://tech.snmjournals.org/content/42/2/116}, eprint = {https://tech.snmjournals.org/content/42/2/116.full.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology} }
