Fractures Word Find

The questions in this word find are not designed to be easy. Some of the ques­tions should challenge you to undertake online research, open a book, unlock information stored in the dark and dusty areas of your brain or inspire you to have a chat with a colleague, radiologist or an orthopaedic surgeon. To get the most out of the word find, try to explore the information and make links with your current knowledge, rather that just finding the answer that will fill in the gap. For example 'The Salter-Harris fracture classification system has how many classifications? Go beyond the question and try to enhance your image interpretation skills, could you identify Salter-Harris fractures on an image, do you understand the mechanisms of injury for Salter-Harris fractures?
