Abstract
The recent growth in the clinical use of bone densitometry began with the introduction of the first dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scanning systems in the late 1980s. Today, scans to measure bone mineral density are seen as having an essential role in the evaluation of patients at risk of osteoporosis.Entities:
