Volumetric DXA (VXA): A new method to extract 3D information from multiple in vivo DXA images.
Three-dimensional geometric and structural measurements of the proximal femur are of considerable interest in understanding the strength of the femur and its susceptibility to fracture. Quantitative computed tomography (QCT) with a small voxel size (≤1 mm per side) is the current "gold standard" to examine the macrostructure of the femur, but it has a high effective radiation dose (approximatel...
متن کاملA Method for Determining Skeletal Lengths from DXA Images
BACKGROUND Skeletal ratios and bone lengths are widely used in anthropology and forensic pathology and hip axis length is a useful predictor of fracture. The aim of this study was to show that skeletal ratios, such as length of femur to height, could be accurately measured from a DXA (dual energy X-ray absorptiometry) image. METHODS 90 normal Caucasian females, 18-80 years old, with whole bod...
متن کامل3D Structural Measurements of the Proximal Femur from 2D DXA Images Using a Statistical Atlas
A method to obtain 3D structural measurements of the proximal femur from 2D DXA images and a statistical atlas is presented. A statistical atlas of a proximal femur was created consisting of both 3D shape and volumetric density information and then deformably registered to 2D fan-beam DXA images. After the registration process, a series of 3D structural measurements were taken on QCT-estimates ...

متن کاملPrediction of femoral strength using 3D finite element models reconstructed from DXA images: validation against experiments
Computed tomography (CT)-based finite element (FE) models may improve the current osteoporosis diagnostics and prediction of fracture risk by providing an estimate for femoral strength. However, the need for a CT scan, as opposed to the conventional use of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for osteoporosis diagnostics, is considered a major obstacle. The 3D shape and bone mineral density (...
