To the Editor, It has been a great pleasure to come across the recent article by Weimin Fu et al. [1] in your esteemed journal. I have went through the article with great interest; the authors deserve accolades for their wonderful work.

Keywords: osteonecrosis femoral; femoral head; editor; early diagnosis; steroid induced; induced osteonecrosis

Journal Title: International Orthopaedics
