Arteriovenous Fistula Affects Bone Mineral Density Measurements in End-Stage Renal Failure Patients

Background and objectives: Hemodialysis needs an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) that may influence the structure and growth of nearby bone and affect bone mass measurement. The study analyzed the effect of AVF in the assessment of forearm bone mineral density (BMD) measured by dual energy x-ray absorpt...
