i dont know yet
A compression fracture is characterized by the collapse of a bone under pressure. A displaced fracture shows misalignment of bone fragments. A transverse fracture is a break straight across the bone. A spiral fracture occurs due to a twisting force and has a helical - shaped break. Based on the x - ray appearance, if the break is straight across the bone's width, it is a transverse fracture.
