When compared with the femoral neck T -score, there were no significant differences between the predictive values of lumbar spine DXA, calcaneal DXA or calcaneal QUS to identify low femoral neck BMD. However, the absolute T -score required to give similar discriminatory capacity to femoral neck ...
Bone mineral density – DXA – Femoral failure loads – Hip fracture – Osteoporosis – UltrasoundThe objective of this study was to determine experimentally the sex-specific correlation of femoral and lumbar DXA and calcaneal ultrasound, measured in situ, with the in vitro failure loads of the ...
Measurements of lumbar spine bone mineral density (L2鈥 4 BMD) and femoral neck BMD were made using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The fracture groups were significantly older and had more years since menopause than the control groups. Logistic regression showed that measurements of UTV, STF ...
Results : Mean HU values of the uninjured calcaneus significantly correlated with bone mineral density scores obtained from DXA scans of the lumbar and femur (Spearman 蟻 = 0.656-0.748; p < 0.001 for both). Decreased HU values of the uninjured calcaneus significantly correlated with decreased Bhl...
The fourth lumbar vertebra was then excised with adjacent intervertebral disks and its mechanical failure load determined, using a materials testing machine. Absolute fracture loads were significantly higher in men than in women, but they were similar after adjusting for body weight and height. ...
(2) how well RTA differentiates subjects with high and low bone fragility.MethodsIn 837 patients (age 19-95 years, 759 women), BMD was measured at the lumbar spine, proximal femur, and calcaneus; clinical risk factors were obtained using a questionnaire; and RTA was performed on densitometric...
Spinal bone mineral density (BMD) measurements and calcaneal ultrasound were compared in terms of their ability to predict the strength of the third lumbar vertebral body using specimens from 62 adult cadavers (28 females, 34 males). BMD was measured using dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in ...

Structure measures analogous to standard histomorphometry and fractal dimension were determined in these images. BMD measurements of the lumbar spine and the proximal femur were obtained in the healthy female controls and the patients. Vertebral and peripheral fracture status were determined in all ...
