photo, indicate problem / show comparison

it's not clear to a laymen like me where the fracture is in the x-ray photo. Could we add an arrow indicating where the problem is, etc? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.99.136.166 (talk) 13:19, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Vertebroplasty has been found to be ineffective." That sounds a bit cut and dried doesn't it? There appears to be plenty of professional debate on this subject and studies done that do not support this. Such a definitive blanket statement seems misleading to say the least. Was this added by the person doing their best to cast vertebroplasty in a negative light at the main page on the subject? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bart man2011 (talk • contribs) 05:32, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
