Contribution of the Vertebral Posterior Elements in Anterior–Posterior DXA Spine Scans in Young Subjects

Because DXA is a projection technique, anterior–posterior (AP) measurements of the spine include the posterior elements and the vertebral body. This may be a disadvantage because the posterior elements likely contribute little to vertebral fracture resistance. This study used QCT to quantify the imp...
