The Ratio of Anterior and Posterior Vertebral Heights Reinforces the Utility of DXA in Assessment of Vertebrae Strength

The objective of the study was to introduce a new parameter describing bone strength with greater precision than the widely used antero-posterior DXA (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry), which measures areal bone mineral density (aBMD). The adjusted areal bone mineral density (AaBMD) defined as the r...
