Bone mineral density (BMD) in the lumbar spine and femoral neck, the incidence of osteoporosis, and survival up to 10years after heart transplantation (HT) were investigated in 169 patients who underwent HT at Skne University Hospital in Lund, Sweden, 1988-2016. Within the first year post-...
The standard value for bone mineral density in the distal radius (R-BMD) and the osteo sono assessment index (OSI) in the os calcaneus for each sex and age in teenagers have not yet been fully reported. The R-BMD and OSI of junior and senior high school students were measured by dual...

A bone mineral density test, sometimes just called abone density test, detects whether you have osteoporosis, a word that comes from Greek and literally means “porous bone.” When you have this condition, your bones get weak and thin. They become more likely to break. It’s a silent cond...
Although a decrease in BMC is the root cause ofosteoporosisand osteoporosis-related fractures, it has become accepted practice inclinical medicineto reportbone mineral density(BMD). OnlyQCTcan measure BMD directly because it is a three-dimensional (3D) technology. However, access to QCT is limited...

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines osteoporosis as bone mineral density (BMD) values of 2.5 standard deviations below the mean for young white adult women1. More recently, a consensus has been achieved in defining osteoporosis not solely based on BMD values, but also as a skeletal diso...
Bone mineral density (BMD) can be affected directly or indirectly in chronic granulomatous systemic diseases such as sarcoidosis. The aim of our study was to evaluate BMD in premenopausal and postmenopausal sarcoidosis patients with or without prednisone treatment and to compare their BMD values with ...
