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

Measurement of areal bone mineral density (aBMD) by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has been shown to predict fracture risk. High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) yields additional information about volumetric BMD (vBMD), microarchitecture, and strength that ma
## Abstract The selective cathepsin K inhibitor odanacatib (ODN) progressively increased bone mineral density (BMD) and decreased boneβresorption markers during 2 years of treatment in postmenopausal women with low BMD. A 1βyear extension study further assessed ODN efficacy and safety and the effec
## Abstract Patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) have continuously elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) and consequently increased bone turnover with negative effects on cortical (Ct) bone with preservation of trabecular (Tb) bone. Highβresolution peripheral quantitative computed tomograp
