DEAR DR. ROACH: The results for my last bone density test show not only a T-score but also a Z-score. For my spine (L1 through L4), the T-score is -3.4, while the Z-score is -1.4. Can you please explain the difference between the two measurements? I realiz...

The densitometric assessment of osteoporosis is based on a bone mineral density (BMD) T-score of − 2.5 or less, which captures the bone mass element of fracture risk and is effective in identifying some, but not all individuals who go on to experience a fragility fracture [3, 5, ...
Patients with inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFS) may have several risk factors for low bone mineral density (BMD). We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of low BMD in IBMFS and determine the associated risk factors. Patients with IBMFS with at

that the presence and severity of AAC is related to bone structure, prevalent fractures, and incident fractures using the same population in which we previously identified an association between AAC and CVD.6To do this, we used lateral spine imaging undertaken at the time of bone density testing...
It also puts your test score in with the white so you can actually see the scale". As for why other formats were perceived as more difficult to comprehend, subjects commented: "Counting all the little [FACES] and you don't get a scale". "[FACES] Gives no feeling of where I stand ...
The individual 10-year fracture risk was assessed by FRAX® tool for Europe–Italy; bone mineral density (BMD) at lumbar spine, femoral neck and total hip was evaluated through dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry; TBS measurements were taken using the same region of interest as the BMD ...
Their raw z-score for pMOI using the Excel-based calculator equates to −0.738 indicating they have lower than expected torsional rigidity for their sex and age. This may be suggestive of reduced cross-sectional bone development and an increased risk of injury, such as a bone stress injury ...
