Feasibility of dual energy X-Ray absorptiometry based images for measurement of height, sitting height, and leg length in children
Background: Interpretation of pediatric bone mineral density by dual energy absorptiometry (DXA) requires adjustment for height (Ht). This is often not easily obtainable in nonambulant subjects. Aims: To investigate the feasibility of using DXA images to evaluate measurements of Ht, sitting he...
