Peak bone mineral density, lean body mass and fractures
Bone , 11/03/09
Boot AM et al. – Peak BMD and peak LBM were attained between 18 and 20 years in females and between 18 and 23 years in males in this study using longitudinal and cross sectional data in the age range of 4 to 30 years.

Lumbar spine BMAD Z–score seems to be a good predictor for future fractures.
