The Negative Impacts of Acromegaly on Bone Microstructure Not Fully Reversible

The Negative Impacts of Acromegaly on Bone Microstructure Not Fully Reversible

PurposeThis study aimed to evaluate the bone turnover markers and bone microarchitecture parameters derived from high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in active and controlled acromegaly patients.MethodsThis cross-sectional study involved 55 acromegaly patients from a...
