Abstract:
Determination of osteoporotic status is based primarily on areal bone mineral density (aBMD) obtained through dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). However, many fractures occur in patients with T-scores above the WHO threshold of osteoporosis, in part because DXA measures are insensitive to biomechanically important alterations in bone quality. The goal of this study was to determine--within groups of subjects with identical radius aBMD values--the extant variation in densitometric, geometric, micro...     »
