correlating whole-body bone mineral densitometry measurements to those from local anatomical sites
patients and methods in this cross-sectional study, we evaluated all patients referred to a single rheumatology clinic for bone mineral density measurements from 2009 to 2010. all patients who had bone mineral density measurements taken from the hip, lumbar spine, forearm, and whole body were enrolled in the study. standard bone mineral density measurements were performed using a dual energy x-...
متن کاملCorrelating Whole-Body Bone Mineral Densitometry Measurements to Those From Local Anatomical Sites
BACKGROUND Using the same cutoff points for whole-body measurements as for site-specific measurements will result in underestimation of osteoporosis. OBJECTIVES We assessed the correlation between densitometry measurements for the whole body with those for the femur, lumbar spine, and forearm to evaluate the possibility of replacing site-specific values with whole-body measurements. PATIENT...
متن کاملWhole Body and Local SAR in Anatomical Phantoms Exposed to RF Fields from Birdcage Coils
A numerical study of the induced fields and specific absorption rate (SAR) in anatomical phantoms exposed to the radiofrequency (RF) fields of magnetic resonance (MR) scanners was conducted using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method at 64MHz and 128MHz. Three phantoms including two adults and one child were used. The study revealed inconsistencies between the MRI safety standards and...
متن کاملWhole body bone mineral accretion in healthy children and adolescents.
Data on accretion in bone size and bone mineral content (BMC) are needed to evaluate bone mineralisation during childhood. Whole body bone mineral content (BMC) and bone area (BA) were determined by dual energy x ray absorptiometry (Hologic 1000/W) with a one year interval in healthy girls (n = 192) and boys (n = 140) aged 6-19 years. Annual accretion in BMC (DeltaBMC (g/year)) and BA (DeltaBA ...
متن کاملWhole body bone mineral content in healthy children and adolescents.
Data from healthy children are needed to evaluate bone mineralisation during childhood. Whole body bone mineral content (BMC) and bone area were examined by dual energy x ray absorptiometry (Hologic 1000/W) in healthy girls (n = 201) and boys (n = 142) aged 5-19 years. Centile curves for bone area for age, BMC for age, bone area for height, and BMC for bone area were constructed using the LMS m...
