Regional improvements in lumbosacropelvic Hounsfield units following teriparatide treatment [PDF]
OBJECTIVE Opportunistic Hounsfield unit (HU) determination from CT imaging has been increasingly used to estimate bone mineral density (BMD) in conjunction with assessments from dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). The authors sought to compare the effect of teriparatide on HUs across different regions in the
