Most important, trabecular bone mineral density was 31% higher in the trained limbs (distal tibia); no previous longitudinal study has demonstrated a bone-sparing effect of this magnitude. The DICOM OsteoGram enables a digital X-ray of a hand to be used to determine bone mineral density in order to screen for, diagnose and monitor osteoporosis, a thinning of the bones that can lead to fractures, especially in older women. Notably, the studies reveal no link between homocysteine levels and bone mineral density (BMD). |
