Bone Quality—Beyond Bone Mineral Density

Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2016
Both 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.

Bone quality in hypoparathyroidism

Minerva Endocrinology, 2021
Hypoparathyroidism is a rare disorder characterized by hypocalcemia and deficient or absent levels of parathyroid hormone. The consequences of chronic hypoparathyroidism involve classic target organs of parathyroid hormone, namely the skeleton and the kidneys.

Measuring Bone Quality

Current Rheumatology Reports, 2013
Osteoporosis is defined as a reduction in bone mass and impairment of bone quality that lead to bone fragility and fracture risk. Bone quality includes a hierarchy of properties from macroscopic to nanoscale level. Several techniques have been developed in an attempt to measure these non-density properties.

Bone histomorphometry and bone quality

Osteoporosis International, 2009
Although PTH(1–34) and PTH are now approved as anabolic therapies for osteoporosis, much remains to be learned about their mechanisms of action and how they interact with antiresorptive agents. In 1995, Pierre Delmas and his colleagues published a landmark paper [1] in which histomorphometric analysis was used to explore the effects of combined ...
