Simultaneous screening for osteoporosis at CT colonography: Bone mineral density assessment using MDCT attenuation techniques compared against the DXA reference standard

PURPOSE: To evaluate the utility of lumbar spine attenuation measurement for bone mineral density (BMD) assessment at screening CT colonography (CTC), using central dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as the reference standard. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 252 adults (240 women, 12 men; mean age, 58.9 y...
