Quantitative computed tomography (QCT) can estimate volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) and distinguish trabecular from cortical bone. Few comprehensive studies have examined correlates of vBMD in older men. This study evaluated the impact of demographic, anthropometric, lifestyle, and medical fa
## Abstract The objective of this crossโsectional analysis was to examine the correlates of trabecular and cortical volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) in 3670 communityโdwelling men, mean age 73.6โยฑโ5.9 years. vBMD was measured by quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and areal BMD by dualโene
