Discordant effect of body mass index on bone mineral density and speed of sound
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Increased BMI may affect the determination of bone mineral density (BMD) by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and speed of sound (SOS) measured across bones. Preliminary data suggest that axial SOS is less affected by soft tissue. The...
