Value of Single Photon Absorptiometry in Osteoporosis Screening

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1988
Radial bone mineral content and bone mineral density were measured in 1515 women referred for osteoporosis screening. A detailed questionnaire allowed the selection of 1069 normal white women for further analysis who had no historical evidence of bone disease or predisposing factors for bone disease. The nondominant radius was measured at two locations:

A Renal Transplant Seen on Dual Photon Absorptiometry

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1993
A 25-year-old man who had a chronic rejection of renal transplantation performed 4 years earlier develops seccondary hyperparathyroidism. Dual-photon absorptiometry of the lumbar spine and right femur were performed to evaluate changes in bone mass. A roundish highdensity area was seen in the right iliac region.

[Dual photon absorptiometry].

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.

Dual-Photon Absorptiometry

1988
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 ...

Single X-ray absorptiometry: Performance characteristics and comparison with single photon absorptiometry

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).

An evaluation of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and comparison with dual-photon absorptiometry

Osteoporosis International, 1992
Dual-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

Single-Photon Absorptiometry

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).

Triple-Photon Energy Absorptiometry in the Measurement of Bone Mineral

Acta Radiologica, 1988
The 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.

Body composition by photon absorptiometry.

Canadian journal of sport sciences = Journal canadien des sciences du sport, 1990
Whole-body dual photon measurements of body composition were made in 9 controls, 15 athletes and 5 patients with eating disorders. Measurements of lean body mass, mineral mass and fat mass were accurate. Lean body mass and fat mass were measured with reliabilities of about 0.8 kg while for total body bone mineral mass, the reliability was about 60 g ...

Single- and dual-photon absorptiometry in osteoporosis and osteomalacia

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 1987
Single- and dual-photon absorptiometric methods have been used in the past to identify populations at risk for bone loss, to define the osteoporotic syndrome in terms of bone mass, and to evaluate treatment regimens to prevent bone loss. Technical improvements have made these procedures available for the nontraumatic measurement of bone mineral in the ...
