The advent of effective treatment and opportunity to precisely and accurately measure bone mass have probably been the greatest advances in the field of osteoporosis in the last decasdes.
Bone densitometry has become the most widespread noninvasive method for the detection of osteoporosis and to provide advice on risk of future fractures. In this section, ① those techniques of BMD measurement, ② interpretation of BMD studies, and ③ clinical applications of BMD measurement are discussed.
