Recent studies have demonstrated the potential application of computed tomography (CT) in research into bone density. Clinical studies of bone density using CT commonly employ a dipotassium phosphate phantom to calibrate measurements of mineral density. Designed for in vivo studies, the use of this
Forearm bone mineral density (BMD) was measured at proximal and distal sites by 125I single photon absorptiometry (SPA) and by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 67 consecutive subjects, aged 18-75 years. Correlations and regression equations between these two techniques were determined. All
