Vertebral bone mineral content in osteogenesis imperfecta

Calcified Tissue International, 1985
Quantitative computed tomography of the lumbar spine was carried out in 28 patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) in order to measure vertebral trabecular bone mineral concentration (BMC). The patients ranged in age from 6-73 years, and included 3 of the 4 major clinical subtypes of the disease.

Mineral content of skeletal bones in otosclerosis

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1979
In 63 patients with otosclerosis confirmed by operation, the bone mineral content was determined by photon absorptiometry. The bone mineral content and bone mineral concentration were found to be normal, which lends support to the assumption that otosclerosis is a localized disease and not a manifestation of a generalized disorder of the skeletal ...

Diet, Exercise, and Bone Mineral Content

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1985
Excerpt To the editor: The study of trabecular and cortical bone loss in healthy men by Drs. Meier, Orwoll, and Jones (1) had a flaw in the experimental design.

Dichromatic Absorptiometry of Vertebral Bone Mineral Content

Investigative Radiology, 1977
A dichromatic photon absorptiometric technique for the in vivo measurement of the bone mineral of the spine is discussed. A high purity, high activity 153Gd source which has photons of predominantly 44 and 100 keV was used as the transmission source. The transmission scans were performed on a modified Ohio Nuclear whole body rectillinear scanner.

Determinants of bone mineral content in childhood

Bone and Mineral, 1991
In a sample of 1190 children (574 boys and 616 girls), aged 6.8-10.7 years, bone mineral content was studied using quantitative röntgen microdensitometry (QMD) at the diaphyseal and the metaphyseal site of the left second digit. Percentile curves of bone mineral density was determined by skeletal age for boys and girls separately.

Relations of Bone Mineral Content, Ash Weight and Bone Mass

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1980
Bone mineral content (BMC) was measured by photon absorptiometry in fresh bone specimens: 35 iliac crest and 39 forearms were used. BMC was related to ash weight, fat-free weight and the amount of bone determined by quantitative histologic methods. Ninety-five per cent of the variation in bone mineral concentration (BMC') in the iliac crest could be ...

Bone Mineral Content in Infants: Which Machine or Which Bone?

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1988
Sir.—We read with interest the article by Vyhmeister et al,1who measured bone mineral content (BMC) at the radial and humeral sites using the Norland 278A (Norland Corp, Fort Atkinson, Wis) photon absorptiometer. The statement in the abstract that "We tested... photon absorptiometric bone density measurements... The humerus was a more reliable site of

Assessment of Bone Mineral Content in the Internal Bone Volume

Acta Radiologica, 1991
A method for assessing values related to bone density and mass is described. Mean attenuation and pixel area are measured in pixels selected on the basis of CT units. The method is to a large extent computerized and not dependent on manual positioning or outlining of a region of interest.

Assessment of Bone Mineral Content in Children

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1991
Quantitative digital radiography (QDR) is a new technique for measuring bone mineral content that offers improved precision, shorter study times, and less radiation exposure than single-photon absorptiometry (SPA), dual-photon absorptiometry (DPA), and quantitative computed tomography (CT) scanning.

Signalment differences in bone mineral content and bone mineral density in canine appendicular bones

Veterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2008
SummaryThe objective was to determine signalment-related differences in bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) in dogs. Unilateral appendicular bones were harvested from 62 canine cadavers. Middiaphyseal regions of interest (ROIs) were scanned using a Hologic® DXA device Braincon, Vienna, Austria).
