Radiogrammetry and Radiographic Absorptiometry

1998
This chapter addresses the methods of radiogrammetry (translated freely as “measuring dimensions on radiographs”) and radiographic absorptiometry (“measuring the X-ray absorption on radiographs”). Both techniques have been used widely in the past, and especially the latter continues to be used in the present as a straightforward, relatively simple and ...

Dual photon absorptiometry of the proximal tibia

Calcified Tissue International, 1989
Bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) of the proximal tibia were determined by dual photon absorptiometry on 44 women, aged 23-87 years. The area of the tibia measured was a 2.01 cm region immediately distal to the medial and lateral tuberosities.

Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry

Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2017
Bone mineral density (BMD) measurement by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most commonly used method to assess fracture risk. DXA utilizes two different energy X-rays to calculate BMD and, by comparison to a young normative database, the T-score.

Dual-photon absorptiometry of the proximal tibia

Archives of Orthopaedic and Traumatic Surgery, 1987
Dual-photon absorptiometric bone-mineral assay, penetration tests, and axial compression tests of the proximal tibial epiphyses were carried out in 18 human cadaver knees. The reproducibility of bone mineral assay was within +/- 12% (95% tolerance limits).

OSTEOPOROSIS IN HYPERTHYROIDISM ESTIMATED BY PHOTON ABSORPTIOMETRY

Acta Endocrinologica, 1979
ABSTRACT The degree of osteoporosis in hyperthyroidism before and during treatment with carbimazole was studied by photon absorption technique of the right forearm and calcaneus. In addition serum total calcium, serum ionized calcium, serum phosphorus and serum alkaline phosphatase were determined.

Bone Mineral Measurement of Phalanges: Comparison of Radiographic Absorptiometry and Area Dual X-ray Absorptiometry

Radiology, 2000
With a standard, image-intensifier-based, digital radiographic system, high-spatial-resolution images of the hand were acquired for analysis of phalangeal bone mineral density with dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Results with phalangeal DXA had precision of plus or minus 0.67% and accuracy of 4.1% and correlated well with those with radiographic ...

[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.

Photon absorptiometry.

American journal of physiologic imaging, 1988
Recently, there has been a renewed interest in the detection and treatment of osteoporosis. This paper is a review of the merits and limitations of the various noninvasive modalities currently available for the measurement of bone mineral density with special emphasis placed upon the nuclear medicine techniques of single-photon and dual-photon ...

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 ...

[X-ray absorptiometry].

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 1998
Bone mass measurements are essential in the diagnosis of osteoporosis, the monitoring of its progression, and the evaluation of therapeutical responses. Among various methods of bone mass measurements, single- and dual-X-ray absorptiometry, SXA and DXA, have shown excellent fundamental performance.
