Luude kvaliteedi sõeluuringud kvantitatiivse ultraheli meetodil [PDF]
Ultraheli kasutamise eelisteks luukoe hindamise sõeluuringutes peetakse kiirguse puudumist, odavust, läbiviimise lihtsust ja kiirust, kuid enim kasutatav luude tiheduse määramise meetod on siiski DXA (kaheenergialine röntgenabsorptsiomeetria).

The contemporary management of prostate cancer
Abstract Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in two thirds of the world, with an expected doubling in both incidence and mortality in the next two decades. No strong environmental associations exist for the development of prostate cancer; therefore, lifestyle measures are unlikely to mitigate this increasing burden.

Gastro‐entero‐pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) exhibit substantial clinical heterogeneity and necessitate a multidisciplinary, personalized approach. Artificial intelligence (AI), through advanced imaging analysis and predictive modeling, offers new opportunities to support diagnosis and guide management.

SPECIFIC SITES OF BONE EXPANSION DEPEND ON THE LEVEL OF VOLLEYBALL PRACTICE IN PREPUBESCENT BOYS
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 18 months of high and low levels of volleyball practice on bone acquisition. 130 prepubescent boys (mean age 11.4 ± 0.7) were divided into a high-level training group (HLG), low-level training ...

Triple‐energy photon‐counting x‐ray imaging for bone‐strontium estimation: A simulation study
Abstract Background Strontium quantification in bone is clinically relevant but typically requires specialized stand‐alone systems. Photon‐counting detectors offer energy‐resolved imaging that may enable low‐dose estimation of both strontium concentration and bone mineral density in a single acquisition.

Downturn in Childhood Bone Mass: A Cross‐Sectional Study Over Four Decades
Screen time and physical inactivity have increased among children. As physical activity is a determinant of bone mass, there is a concern that children today have lower bone mass than earlier.

Measurement of bone quality in growing male rats using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and bone ash content : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Animal Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Growing male rats have been considered and used as a model for bone growth and prevention of osteoporosis because of their high bone turnover and demand for calcium. Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) is a useful tool for identifying minimal changes

ABSTRACT Background The diagnosis of malnutrition has evolved with the GLIM recommendations, which advocate for integrating phenotypic criteria, including muscle mass measurement. The GLIM framework specifically suggests using skeletal muscle index (SMI) assessed via CT scan at the third lumbar level (L3) as a first‐line approach.

Determinants of bone damage: An ex-vivo study on porcine vertebrae. [PDF]
Bone's resistance to fracture depends on several factors, such as bone mass, microarchitecture, and tissue material properties. The clinical assessment of bone strength is generally performed by Dual-X Ray Photon Absorptiometry (DXA), measuring bone ...
