Osteoporosis and Bone Densitometry Measurements provides a comprehensive review of the latest research on this potentially devastating condition. The book encompasses prevention, diagnosis, and therapy, providing state of the art information on each aspect. A wide range of topics are discussed, including differentiation between acute and chronic, benign and malignant vertebral fractures; the value of the WHO FRAX tool in patient evaluation; the roles of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, quantitative computed tomography, quantitative ultrasound, and high-resolution imaging; and the use of kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty to treat vertebral compression fractures. All chapters are written by acknowledged experts in the field. 410 0$aMedical radiology. 606 $aOsteoporosis 606 $aBone densitometry 615 0$aOsteoporosis. 615 0$aBone densitometry. 676 $a616.716 701 $aGuglielmi$b G$g(Giuseppe),$f1957-$01749901 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438130503321 996 $aOsteoporosis and bone densitometry measurements$94195859 997 $aUNINA
