Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2004
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

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.

The extraordinary advances in bone density technology since the 1970s have enhanced the physician’s ability to detect and manage metabolic bone disease. In the last 25 years, due to an improvements in hardware and software of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) there has been increasing interest within the orthopaedic community in the noninvasive ...

Discordance in DXA Male Reference Ranges
Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2004Previous studies have reported discordance in female lumbar spine and proximal femur dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) reference ranges. Although the NHANES III reference range is recommended for the proximal femur in males and females, there are no published data in men on the concordance or otherwise of the different manufacturer-specific lumbar

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.

Evaluation of Sarcopenia by DXA
Clinical Reviews in Bone and Mineral Metabolism, 2016There are four body composition phenotypes widely used to describe older adults: normal, sarcopenic, obese, and sarcopenic obese. In this paper, we will discuss how DXA can be used to quantify body composition and how DXA can identify patients with sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity.
