The clinical role of dual energy X-ray absorptiometry
European Journal of Radiology, 09/16/09
Blake GM et al. – Compared with alternative bone densitometry techniques, hip and spine DXA examinations have a number of advantages that include a consensus that BMD results can be interpreted using the World Health Organisation (WHO) T–score definition of osteoporosis, a proven ability to predict fracture risk, proven effectiveness at targeting anti–fracture therapies, and the ability to monitor response to treatment. This review discusses the evidence for these and other clinical aspects of DXA scanning, including its role in the new WHO algorithm for treating patients on the basis of their individual fracture risk.
