The development of the skeletal system in children and the influence of muscular strength
In a study on 14 healthy children aged from 6 to 13 years, the volumetric spongiosa bone density (SBD), cortical bone density (CBD), bo...
Bone density reduction in various measurement sites in men and women with osteoporotic fractures of spine and hip: the European quantitation of osteoporosis study
We have measured bone mineral density (BMD) using dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of the spine and hip, spinal quantitative computed to...
Measurement of forearm bone in children by peripheral computed tomography
By means of peripheral computed tomography (pQCT), adult cortical bone density and volume was shown to be under a fixed rectilinear rel...
Diagnostic sensitivity of peripheral quantitative computed tomography measurements at ultradistal and proximal radius in postmenopausal women
Peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) is a bone densitometry technique that is able to provide real volumetric bone densit...
Estrogen and bone-muscle strength and mass relationships
The largest voluntary loads on bones come from muscles. To adapt bone strength and mass to them, special strain threshold ranges determ...
Volumetric bone mineral density using peripheral quantitative computed tomography in Japanese women
The present study evaluated a commercial device for peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) and examined the age-related cha...
