Abstract:
Bone microstructure is one of the important factors for defining bone quality. High Resolution peripheral Quantitative CT(HR-pQCT)enables us to evaluate bone microstructure in patients with osteoporosis noninvasively. It is applied to fracture risk assessment, analysis for pathogenesis of osteoporosis, and study of effects of osteoporosis drugs.
