Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]

, 2002
The traditional method of assessing bone mineral density (BMD; given by bone mineral content [BMC] divided by projected bone area [Ap], BMD = BMC/Ap) has come under strong criticism by various authors. Their criticism being that the projected bone "area"

Mineral bone disorder and osteoporosis in hemodialysis patients

Advances in Rheumatology, 2020
Background Bone disease is common in patients undergoing hemodialysis. It is the result of bone turnover abnormalities and the decrease of bone mineral density (BMD). We aimed to determine the usefulness of serum bone turnover markers and BMD measurement
