1 H MRS as a novel quantitative method for osteoporosis detection

Bone mineral density is an important parameter that determines strength of the bone. Decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) leads to dangerous skeletal diseases like osteopenia, osteoporosis and an increased risk of fractures, for instance compression vertebral fracture (CVF). Dual-energy x-ray abso...

Description
Summary:Bone mineral density is an important parameter that determines strength of the bone. Decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) leads to dangerous skeletal diseases like osteopenia, osteoporosis and an increased risk of fractures, for instance compression vertebral fracture (CVF). Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative CT (QCT) are commonly accepted methods for assessing of the BMD. Previously FF was shown to increase in adult patients with osteoporosis as compared to healthy volunteers. The aim of the study was to explore the relationship between FF and BMD in children. Correlation analysis revealed significant inverse correlation link (p
