Abstract:
The use of QUS (quantitative ultrasound) for the assessment of skeletal status has been continued and accelerating interest in recent years. The attractive of QUS lies in its low cost, portability, and freedom from ionizing radiation. These benefits, combined with clinical results showing good diagnostic sensitivity and the ability to predict fracture risk, have encouraged further basic investigation.
