Article: Researchers from University of Calgary publish new studies and findings in the area of bone research.(Report)

Data detailed in 'Improved reproducibility of high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography for measurement of bone quality' have been presented. According to a study from Calgary, Canada, "A human high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography scanner (HR-pQCT) (XtremeCT, Scanco Medical, Switzerland) capable of measuring three important indicators of bone quality (micro-architectural morphology, mineralization and mechanical stiffness) has been developed. The goal of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of male and female HR-pQCT in vivo measurements, and elucidate the causes of error in these measurements through a comparison with in ...
