Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) has emerged as a convenient and popular screening tool for
osteoporosis. This review aimed to provide basic information on the principle of QUS …

The use of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) for a variety of skeletal sites, associated with the
absence of technology-specific guidelines, has created uncertainty with respect to the …

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is commonly used in the care of patients for
diagnostic classification of osteoporosis, low bone mass (osteopenia), or normal bone …

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) presents a low cost and readily available alternative to DXA
measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) for osteoporotic fracture risk assessment. It is …

Bone health status is largely absent in South Africa, the main reasons being the absence
and cost-effectiveness of specific screening equipment for assessing bone mineral density …

Objective: Osteoporosis has traditionally been considered a female problem. This study's
purpose is to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD) in males with eating disorders. Method …

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) appears to be developing into an acceptable, low-cost and
readily-accessible alternative to dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements of bone …

Objective: We investigated the coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity in older adults≥ 65
years diagnosed with osteoporosis and the association with Quality of Life (QoL) Methods: A …

Abstract Background Circulating micro-RNAs have been proposed as a new type of
biomarker in several diseases, particularly those related to bone health. They have shown …
