Bone density and endometriosis
Fertility and Sterility, 1994To establish whether there is evidence of low bone density in women with endometriosis, we compared bone density between 48 women with laparoscopically proven endometriosis and 48 age-matched normal controls. Bone density of the lumbar spine (L2-4), proximal femur (femoral neck, Ward's triangle, and trochanteric region), and total body were measured by

High bone density and bone health
Endocrinología y Nutrición (English Edition), 2012The aim of this paper is to review the main aspects related to high bone density (HBD) as well as to discuss the physiologic mechanisms involved in bone health. There are still no well-defined criteria for identification of individuals with HBD and there are few studies on the topic.

Early diagnosis of osteoporosis is difficult. Bone density measurements, however, are helpful in screening patients at risk. Technology now provides means of measuring densities of both peripheral and central bones. The most practical method is dual X-ray densitometry, which is of good sensitivity and accuracy.

Measurements of Bone Mass and Bone Density
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1989X-ray-based procedures are available to measure bone mineral density in vitro at almost any skeletal site. These bone density measurements are not useful in the diagnosis of the cause of bone loss but at present are the only tests available for assessing bone mass prior to the occurrence of irreversible changes such as fractures or vertebral ...

Bone Quality—Beyond Bone Mineral Density
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2016Both bone mass and quality are responsible for bone strength. Whereas bone mass is measured with bone mineral density, quantification of bone quality is more complex and involves bone architecture, texture, and mechanical parameters. Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in developing technologies to measure bone quality.

Assessment of bone density and bone loss
Osteoporosis International, 1996Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry has become the standard for the evaluation of osteoporosis. It is useful both for identifying those people who are going to be at risk of fracture in the future, and for monitoring therapy when the measurements are made at the lumbar spine.

Dietary restrictions, bone density, and bone quality
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2016Caloric restriction (CR), protein restriction (PR), and specific amino acid restriction (e.g., methionine restriction (MR)) are different dietary interventions that have been confirmed with regard to their comprehensive benefits to metabolism and health. Based on bone densitometric measurements, weight loss induced by dietary restriction is known to be

Osteocyte density in woven bone
Bone, 2004Woven bone forms rapidly during tissue growth, following injury and in response to certain anabolic stimuli. Functional differences between woven and lamellar bone may be due, in part, to differences in osteocyte density (cells per unit tissue). Woven bone has been estimated to contain four to eight times more osteocytes than lamellar bone, although ...

Bone density in medieval skeletons
Calcified Tissue International, 1995We studied the most complete skeletons found in an excavation from the 14th and 15th century in central Stockholm. One hundred eighty-seven were from men and 156 from women: 241 individuals were estimated to be between 20 and 39 and 102 between 40 and 59 years old at death. We examined the bones radiographically and by dual photon absorptiometry.
