Initial radiographic evaluation of the spine after trauma: when, what, where, and how to image the acutely traumatized spine.

abstract：:Minifragment implants provide several advantages for the stabilization of distal humerus fractures. Compared with small fragment implants, minifragment implants may provide enhanced fracture fixation because a greater number of screws can be placed into the distal fragments. In addition, minifragment plates are easier...
