A novel non-invasive method for predicting bone mineral density and fracture risk using demographic and anthropometric measures

A novel non-invasive method for predicting bone mineral density and fracture risk using demographic and anthropometric measures

Fractures are costly to treat and can significantly increase morbidity. Although dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) is used to screen at risk people with low bone mineral density (BMD), not all areas have access to one. We sought to create a readily accessible, inexpensive, high-throughput pred...
