OSTEOPROTEGERIN AND BONE DENSITY [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2001
Aim of study was determine if a correlation exists between bone mass density and concentration of osteoprotegerin. We examined the group of 199 patients of mean age of 63 years. Of the group under study, 31 patients had normal bone density (T score > -1 and < 1) and 168 probands had osteopenia or osteoporosis (T < -1).

Bone Density Determination [PDF]

open access: yesSpine, 1997
Bone mineral density determination is an integral part of the diagnosis, therapeutic planning, and monitoring of a patient with osteoporosis. Although the utility of measuring bone density seems intuitive, decisions must be made regarding whom to test, when to test, which technique to use, and which body site to evaluate.

Advantages of lateral BMD DEXA measurement and concomitant lateral spinal imaging at the point of service over conventional PA measurement in the estimation of BMD

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Radiology, 2003
This study examined 144 sequentially selected female patients with a mean age of 53.4 years. The purpose was to assess whether instant vertebral assessment (IVA) and lateral DEXA bone mineral density (BMD) measurement in the lumbar spine would render a ...

Time Trends in Trajectories of Forearm Mineral Content and Bone Size during Childhood—Results from Cross‐Sectional Measurements with the Same Apparatus Four Decades Apart

open access: yesJBMR Plus, 2023
Evidence suggests that single photon absorptiometry (SPA)‐measured forearm bone mineral density (BMD) is lower in contemporary children in Malmö than it was four decades ago, but the fracture incidence in the at‐risk population (all Malmö children) has ...
