Comparative Evaluation of Two Noninvasive Methods of Study of Bone Density in Women of Uzbek Population
Journal Title: Біль. Суглоби. Хребет - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
40 women aged 50–60 years were examined by ultrasonic and X-ray densitometry to assess bone mineral density. For the diagnosis of osteoporosis and osteopenia and the administration of appropriate therapy it is necessary to measure bone density by X-ray densitometry. In order to identify groups at risk for disorders of bone mineral density in a large cohort of postmenopausal women, it is possible to use ultrasound densitometry.
