Many fractures occur in individuals without osteoporosis defined by areal bone mineral density (aBMD). Inclusion of other aspects of skeletal strength may be useful in identifying at-risk subjects. We used surrogate measures of bone strength at the radius and tibia measured by peripheral quantitativ
## Abstract The objective of this crossβsectional analysis was to examine the correlates of trabecular and cortical volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) in 3670 communityβdwelling men, mean age 73.6βΒ±β5.9 years. vBMD was measured by quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and areal BMD by dualβene
