Cross-calibration of dual-energy X-ray densitometers for a large, multi-center genetic study of osteoporosis.

Cross-calibration of dual-energy X-ray densitometers for a large, multi-center genetic study of osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis is a common disease with a strong genetic component characterized by reduced bone mass and an increased risk of fragility fractures. Bone mineral density (BMD) is the most important determinant of osteoporotic fracture risk, but the genes responsible for BMD regulation and fracture are...
