Bone mineral content (BMC) and bone density (BMC/W) of the radius were measured in 138 maturity-type diabetics with the Norland-Cameron bone mineral analyzer and compared with the results of age- and sex-matched controls. In some age groups the mean cortical and trabecular bone mass and den...
Whether you are attempting to lose weight or monitor your current bone and muscle density, the numbers shown on the scale can be misleading. While you may want to focus on the numbers of the scale, it is more important to calculate how much of your weight is unwanted fat vs. muscle and...
34 Assessment of bone mineral density in this region is clinically useful because this is the most common site of fractures. This innovative technique allows use of DXA technology in children whose spasticity or contractures preclude measurement at the traditional proximal femur site. Henderson and ...
Do Markers of Bone Resorption Add to Bone Mineral Density and Ultrasonographic Heel Measurement for the Prediction of Hip Fracture in Elderly Women? The EP... We have previously shown that hip bone mineral density (BMD), heel broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) and bone resorption markers are...
Dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most widely used measurement for the assessment of bone mass in osteoporosis. In clinical measurement, bone width can affect bone mineral parameters. The purpose of this study was to examine the dependence of bone mineral pa-rameters on bone width. In ...
Interunit variability among bone densitometers is due to different factors, including different calibration procedures and algorithms and variability in photon source energies and/or intensities. Other factors, such as the choice of scan parameters or the analysis procedures, can also introduce variability...

is the measurement of density of minerals, such as calcium, present in an individual's bones. It is typically measured in units of matter per area of bone. Density tests are often taken to determine the strength of an individual's bones and to determine the risk of various density disorders...
