Original Title:
"Aξιολόγηση της οστικής δομής με pQCT,TBS,DXL σε ασθενείς με ατελή οστεογένεση"
Translated title:
"Bone structure assessed by HR-pQCT, TBS and DXL in adult patients with osteogenesis imperfecta"
Summary:
Bone microarchitecture by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) was assessed in adult patients with mild, moderate, and severe osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). The trabecular bone score (TBS), bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and dual X-ray and laser (DXL) at the calcaneus were likewise assessed in patients with OI. Trabecular microstructure and BMD in particular were severely altered in patients with OI.
