Effects of an excess and a deficiency of endogenous parathyroid hormone on volumetric bone mineral density and bone geometry determined by peripheral quantitative computed tomography in female subjects
Peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) is useful for evaluating volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) as well as bone mine...
Hormone replacement therapy improves distal radius bone structure by endocortical mineral deposition
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) produces a small increase in bone mineral density (BMD) when measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiom...
Predicting the failure load of the distal radius
The distal radius is an important site for the early detection of patients at risk for fracture. Since measuring bone strength in vivo ...
The volumetric bone density and cortical thickness in adult patients affected by osteogenesis imperfecta
In patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a disease characterized by abnormal bone fragility, bone mineral density (BMD) was found...
Cortical bone density is normal in prepubertal children with growth hormone (GH) deficiency, but initially decreases during GH replacement due to early bone remodeling
Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) has revealed that GH- deficient adults gain in bone mineral density during GH therapy. Measurem...
Aging bone in men and women: beyond changes in bone mineral density
Using peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) we assessed trabecular and cortical bone density, mass and geometric distribut...
Volumetric and projective bone mineral density
Projectional bone mineral density measurement so far used extensively in radiogrammetry and single and dual source absorptiometry is co...
Peripheral quantitative computed tomography of the tibia: pediatric reference values.
Peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) has been used in a number of pediatric studies. Reference data for children are prim...
Whole body vibration and dynamic restraint.
The purpose of this study was to identify changes due to whole body vibration in peroneus longus (PL) activation following ankle inver...
