Abstract
<p>In this study, we measured ultrasound velocity in the calcaneus of 73 inpatients with traffic injuries using an ultrasound device. The results showed a significant gender difference with an average 1,559 [m/sec] of men and an average 1,532 [m/sec] of women. Because previous studies have reported that road injury is more likely to be severe at age 55 years, this study compared ultrasound velocities in patients 55 years and younger with those in patients 55 years and older and found a significant difference. These results suggest that bone strength varies with age and sex, resulting in a significant effect on injury severity.</p>
