It is bone min- eral density that is closely related to bone fragility, and the advent of techniques to quantitatively assess bone density has been welcomed. It has reduced the sub- jectivity inherent to conventional radiologic assessment of osteoporosis. The on- going technical process has made various techJ)iques to assess bone density wide- ly available. However, these measurement techniques have also incurred some crit- icism because bone densitometry has sometimes been applied without specific indications and without appropriate clinical ramifications. The purpose of this text is to provide a perspective on the current status of bone densitometry and ist relevance to osteoporosis diagnosis and management. Therefore, this book will give the reader an introduction to the nature of osteo- porosis, its pathophysiology and epidemiology, and the clinical consequences of performing bone densitometry. Aside from standard bone densitometry, newer technologies | Pindex | Book 1998 |
