The Use of Photon Absorptiometry in the Diagnosis of Renal Osteodystrophy
Radiology, 1973By using a 125I collimated point source to measure bone mineral, 700 measurements were obtained from the cortical bone of the lower arm in 303 patients with renal failure representing every stage of the disease. Of these patients, 123 had received transplants.

The reproducibility of single photon absorptiometry in a clinical setting
European Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 1989The reproducibility of single photon absorptiometry (SPA) results for detection of changes in bone mineral content (BMC) was evaluated in a clinical setting. During a period of 18 months with 4 different sources, the calibration scans of an aluminium standard had a variation of less than 1% unless the activity of the 125I source was low.

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry versus single photon absorptiometry of the radius
Calcified Tissue International, 1991Radial diaphyseal bone mineral density (BMD) was measured at the standard one-third site by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and by 125I single photon absorptiometry (SPA) in 70 consecutive subjects, aged 12-86 years, with metabolic disorders of the skeleton. Each patient was measured once by the DEXA (Hologic QDR-1000) instrument and four times

Rinsho hoshasen. Clinical radiography, 1990
BMC and BMD of the total body bone and lumbar spine were measured in normal control and patients with metabolic bone diseases by DPA (Dichromatic Bone Densitometer Model 2600, Norland corporation). Also, total body fat mass was measured in patients with obesity.

An evaluation of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and comparison with dual-photon absorptiometry
Osteoporosis International, 1992Dual-photon absorptiometry (DPA) is a well-established procedure for measuring bone mineral density (BMD). Recently, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has become available, which has the ability to measure BMD both regionally and in the total body (TB). We have evaluated the in vivo and in vitro precision of a DXA instrument and compared it with a

1988
Single-photon absorptiometry (SPA) was first described by Cameron and Sorenson (1963) in an effort to overcome the problems inherent in the use of film densitometry. The basic configuration for the single-photon systems commercially available today was introduced in 1972 (Mazess and Cameron, 1972).

Osteoporosis International, 1995
The aim of the present study was to evaluate a new device for measurement of forearm bone mass using the technique of single X-ray absorptiometry (SXA, DTX-100; Osteometer A/S, Rødovre, Denmark), and to compare the performance with the more traditional single photon absorptiometry (SPA, DT 100; Osteometer A/S, Rødovre, Denmark).

The potential of dual-photon absorptiometry (DPA) for noninvasive bone measurements was originally reported by Reed (1960) and by Cameron and Sorenson (1963). The first equipment utilizing this technique was constructed by Reed and Atkinson (1965; Reed, 1966), and methods for measurement of the BMC of the lumbar vertebrae in vivo were subsequently ...

Photon absorptiometry, bone densitometry and the challenge of osteoporosis
Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2006During the lifetime of Physics in Medicine and Biology, osteoporosis has been recognized as the cause of a major health burden for societies, particularly within developed countries. The health detriment is associated with the consequences of bone fractures and the subsequent increases in morbidity and mortality.

Triple-Photon Energy Absorptiometry in the Measurement of Bone Mineral
Acta Radiologica, 1988The feasibility of determination of bone mineral content using a triple-photon absorptiometric technique is presented. Using three different photon energies it is possible to correct the measured ‘bone mineral’ value for fat and lean soft tissue.
