REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Chowdhury MS et al[1] conducted a morphometric study on 199 fully
ossifiedfemurs of which89 were male specimensand 110 were female
specimens. They found that the average femoral diameter of head was 5.84+-
0.42mm and 4.06+-0.18 mm in males and females respectively.
Athapattu M et al[2] measured the diameter of femoral head using ring gauge
vernier caliper, on x ray and CT scan and compared the measurement. They
found out there was no major difference in the diameter measured by different
methods.

Rashid S et al [6] studied femoral head morphometry in 80 dry femur
bones.They found that the mean vertical head diameter of right and left sides
were 43.51mm and 43.16mm respectively.
OBJECTIVES-
