The Value of Calcaneal Quantitative Ultrasound And Phalangeal Radiographic Absorbsiometry in Diagnosis of Osteoporosis: A Comparative Study - Original Investigation
Aims: The current method for screening osteoporosis involves dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). The aim of this study to determine specifity and sensitivity of the calcaneal quantative ultrasound (QUS) and radiographic absorbsiometri (RA). Materials and Methods: We enrolled a total of 69 comm...
