DXA in Children and Adolescents
Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2021DXA plays a critical role in assessing skeletal health and disease, as well as, fat and muscle status in children and adolescents. Quality DXA requires training, expertise and attention to details, as in adults, but there are key differences in performing and interpretations in children.

Baillière's Clinical Rheumatology, 1996
The steady improvement in densitometric technique is reviewed in this paper culminating in the newest generation of DXA scanners. The suitability of the lumbar spine, femur and hand as sites for the densitometric measurement of bone loss in rheumatoid disease is assessed.

Aging Clinical and Experimental Research, 2016
Sarcopenia is a condition characterized by progressive and generalized reduction in skeletal muscle mass and muscle strength, associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes (disability, hospitalization, death). The growing attention in the last years, aiming to establish a consensus definition and treatment, reflects the interest of the ...

Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2006
The proliferation of devices to measure bone mineral density (BMD), with large numbers of technologists operating these instruments and numerous physicians interpreting/reporting the results, raises concern regarding the quality of the studies. High quality BMD measurement and reporting is essential, since referring healthcare providers rely on these ...

Utility of DXA for monitoring, technical aspects of DXA BMD measurement and precision testing
Bone, 2017Monitoring a patient's bone mineral density (BMD) is one of the main reasons for dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) referral. It is widely recommended by clinical guidelines, and the accepted standard in practice for managing patients with osteoporosis and other disorders.

Reproducibility of DXA in Obese Women
Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2002Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements were analyzed using two versions of software (Hologic V8.1a and V8.21) to compare the short- and long-term precisions of the measurements. Software V8.21 was designed by the manufacturer to better address magnification effects on estimations of soft tissue lean mass.

In order to evaluate the utility of peripheral measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) in the diagnosis of osteoporosis, we measured BMD at the spine and femoral neck with central dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), at phalanx with AccuDXA (Schick) as well as proximal and distal forearm with pDXA (Norland) in 835 women ranging in age from 20 to ...

Recent developments in DXA. Quality of new DXA/MXA-devices for densitometry and morphometry
European Journal of Radiology, 1995The introduction of new devices demands the assessment of their capabilities in established terms. The accuracy, reproducibility and spatial resolution of in vitro (phantom) osteodensitometric and morphometric measurements of QDR 2000 Plus and EXPERT are presented. Design details of these DXA/MXA-devices are listed and discussed in combination with the

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2018
AbstractDual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a versatile technology that is widely used in clinical practice in the management of osteoporosis and other skeletal diseases. It is a safe and inexpensive procedure that measures bone mineral density (BMD) to diagnose osteoporosis, assess fracture risk, and monitor osteoporosis treatment.

Bone, 2007
The measurement of bone mineral density is a surrogate for the measurement of bone strength. Bone strength is comprised of many components including, but not limited to bone architecture, geometry, cortical porosity and tissue mineralization density.
