Abstract
An instrument for clinical measurement of bone mineral content in the axial skeleton was constructed. Components include a modified dual probe scanner, a PDP-11 computer, a 153Gd source, and a NaTI) detector. The results were accurate and highly reproducible, and distinction of osteoporotic women from normal age-matched women was superior to that accomplished with single photon absorptiometry in the radius.Entities:
