Fig. 3From: Distal radius plate of CFR-PEEK has minimal effect compared to titanium plates on bone parameters in high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography: a pilot studyRepresentative HRpQCT slices in each radius with (a, b and c) and without instrumented plate (d, e and f). The CFR-PEEK plate with tantalum fibers (panel a) caused less visible image artifacts as compared to the titanium plates (panel b and c), which caused streak artifacts (white arrows) and an increased intensity of voxels close to the titanium plates (black arrows)Back to article page
