Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The World Health Organization (WHO) has established dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as the best densitometric technique for assessing bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women and has based the definitions of osteopenia and osteoporosis ...

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry: fat estimation errors due to variation in soft tissue hydration.

open access: yes, 1998
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is rapidly gaining acceptance as a reference method for analyzing body composition. An important and unresolved concern is whether and to what extent variation in soft tissue hydration causes errors in DXA fat ...

EVALUATION METHODS OF BONE CONDITION [PDF]

open access: yesActa Tecnología, 2019
The article presents research methods for bone damage diagnosis by osteoporosis. We describe in detail densitometric methods such as DEXA tests, SXA method, Quantitative Computed Tomography (QCT) and Quantitative UltraSound (QUS) method.

Towards a Compositional Framework for Describing Human Phenotypes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The Phenotype Assembly Method (PhenoAM) decomposes phenotype variables into measurable Features and typed Qualifiers, enabling standardized, machine‐readable Phenome Data Elements (PhenoDEs) that preserve measurement context. Applied in the International Human Phenome Project (IHPP), the framework yields 58 371 PhenoDEs and supports component‐level ...

Artifacts affecting dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and bone mineral density measurements: a case report and review of the literature

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports
Introduction It is important to recognize artifacts of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry because they may alter bone mineral density measurements. To prevent erroneous decisions and misdiagnosis regarding treatment and follow-up, bone mineral density ...

Age‐Related Lamin B1 Deficiency Activates SLC7A11‐Dependent Disulfidptosis to Impair Osteogenesis via Intercepting Mitochondrial Fission

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that age‐related LMNB1 deficiency in mesenchymal stem cells epigenetically upregulates SLC7A11, triggering actin disulfidptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction. This cascade impairs bone formation in senile osteoporosis. Furthermore, researchers identified the FDA‐approved drug naldemedine as a targeted SLC7A11 inhibitor to reverse ...

Measuring body composition in overweight individuals by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry

open access: yesBMC Medical Imaging, 2005
Background Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is widely used for body composition measurements in normal-weight and overweight/obese individuals. The limitations of bone densitometers have been frequently addressed.

Imaging Method: Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry

open access: yes, 2017
Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry is used for the assessment of physique traits of athletes. Given the use of X-rays and thus exposure to radiation, specific training by a suitably accredited national organisation is required before dual energy X-ray ...
