Bone density, microarchitecture and tissue quality long-term after kidney transplant

Bone mineral density (BMD) measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is used to assess bone health in kidney transplant recipients (KTR). Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) and in vivo microindentation are novel techniques that directly measure trabecular microarchitecture and mechanical propertie...
