FRACTURE Study

Sites

We will be including many thousands of X-rays of bones in all children of different ages across different hospitals in the U.K. Some will have fractures and some will not. We need a large number of cases to train a computer and to test it to see how well it works. Our final numbers of cases are calculated based on previous scientific work to make sure it is large enough to get an accurate computer programme to work, and reach a firm conclusion.
