ANALYSIS OF DUAL-ENERGY X-RAY ABSORPTIOMETRY IMAGES USING COMPUTER VISION METHODS [PDF]

Trakia Journal of Sciences, 2020
PURPOSE: Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the “golden standard” for diagnosing osteoporosis. Its analyzing algorithm (software) makes it possible to distinguish the bone from the soft tissue.

Dual‐Energy X‐Ray Absorptiometry for Quantification of Visceral Fat [PDF]

Obesity, 2012
Obesity is the major risk factor for metabolic syndrome and through it diabetes as well as cardiovascular disease. Visceral fat (VF) rather than subcutaneous fat (SF) is the major predictor of adverse events. Currently, the reference standard for measuring VF is abdominal X‐ray computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), requiring ...

Seeing Through the Density: A Case of Misleading BMD Results on bone densitometry

Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association
Bone mineral densitometry (BMD) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is widely recognized as the standard method for evaluating bone density. DXA produces attenuation maps that aid in measuring BMD. Non-relevant findings are commonly observed in

Assessment of Growth in Cardio‐Facio‐Cutaneous Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardio‐facio‐cutaneous (CFC) syndrome is a rare, multiple congenital anomaly disorder in which individuals commonly experience faltering growth; however, systematic analysis of growth parameters in this disorder has not been performed. We recruited 69 participants with CFC through CFC International and collected data on assessing height ...
