Forearm bone mineral density in Mar del Plata women sample

The incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis, and the frequencies of related fractures, had been studied several times in Latin America. In Argentina, these studies were focused on femoral neck and lumbar vertebras. In the current work, we present an exploratory study of osteopenia and osteoporosis...

In Argentina, these studies were focused on femoral neck and lumbar vertebras. In the current work, we present an exploratory study of osteopenia and osteoporosis incidence on radio, in women sample of Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

A sample of 1008 feminine subjects was densitometricaly studied by Single Photon Absorciometry on radio, where the gap between radio and ulna is 8 mm.
