Skeletal Anatomy in Densitometry,Densitometry is primarily a quantitative measurement technique rather than a skeletal imaging technique. Nevertheless, there are unique aspects of skeletal anatomy in densitometry that must be appreciated to properly utilize the technology and interpret the quantitative results as well as the skeletal images.

挣扎

Selecting Patients for Bone Mass Measurements,Physicians can accurately and precisely quantify the bone density at virtually any skeletal site with the densitometry techniques available today. But when should these technologies be used? In what clinical circumstances should physicians consider measuring the bone density?

Diagnosing Osteoporosis,Many disease processes can affect skeletal mass. As the use of densitometry has become more widespread, an increasing number of diseases. have been recognized as causing a decline in bone density. Nevertheless, the use of densitometry to diagnose osteoporosis remains the most common application of densitometry to disease states.
